    Ch-04 Vectors: Lect-02

    Uploaded by

    Manoj Pani
    This document discusses different methods for graphically adding vectors, including the triangle law, parallelogram law, and polygon law. The triangle law states that the resultant vector is given by the third side of a triangle formed by the two vectors. The parallelogram law indicates the resultant is the diagonal of a parallelogram formed by the vectors. The polygon law, or head-tail method, can be used to add more than two vectors by placing their heads and tails in sequence.

    Triangle Law of Vector Addition

    “ If two vectors are represented by two sides of a triangle in


    magnitude and direction taken in same order, then the resultant is
    given by the third side of the triangle in magnitude and direction
    taken in opposite order”
