Which of the following statements are correct? Adding two vectors creates a new "resultant" vector. When adding parallel vectors, the resultant vector is the sum of the magnitudes of the original vectors. When adding perpendicular vectors, the resultant vector is the sum of the magnitudes of the original vectors. Graphing calculators always report angles in degrees. Vectors pointing in different direction cannot be subtracted. A vector can be broken into x and y component vectors that sum to equal the original vector. Multiplying a vector by a scalar changes the vector's magnitude and direction.
