Review | Constants
To understand that adding vectors by using geometry
and by using components gives the same result, and
that manipulating vectors with components is much
easier.
The vectors A and B have lengths A and B, respectively, and B makes an angle 0 from the direction of
A.
Vectors may be manipulated either geometrically or
using components. In this problem we consider the
addition of two vectors using both of these two
methods
Vector addition using geometry
Vector addition using geometry is accomplished by putting the tail of one vector (in this case B) on the
tip of the other (A) (Figure 1) and using the laws of plane geometry to find the length C, and angle , of

Vector addition using components requires the choice of a coordinate system. In this problem, the x axis
is chosen along the direction of A (Figure 2). Then the x and y…
Learning Goal:
To practice addition of vectors.
Vectors are quantities that possess both magnitude and direction. In engineering problems, it is best to think of vectors as arrows, and
usually it is best to manipulate vectors using components. In this tutorial, we consider the addition of two vectors using both of these
techniques.
Consider two vectors A and B that have lengths A and B, respectively. Vector B makes an angle from the direction of A.(
Figure 1)In vector notation, the sum is represented by
where C is a new vector that is the sum of A and B.

Place B's tail at A's tip, C's tail at A's tail, and C's tip at B's tip.
Place A's tail at B's tail, C's tail at B's tip, and C's tip at A's tip.
Place A's tail at B's tail, C's tail at A's tip, and C's tip at B's tip.
Calculate the magnitude as the sum of the lengths and the direction as midway between A and B.
