Give the names of two methods for vector addition. Write the law of parallelogram for vector addition.
(N/A) The two common methods for vector addition are:
$1$. Triangle Law of Vector Addition.
$2$. Parallelogram Law of Vector Addition.
Parallelogram Law of Vector Addition states that if two vectors acting simultaneously at a point are represented in magnitude and direction by the two adjacent sides of a parallelogram drawn from a point,then their resultant vector is represented in magnitude and direction by the diagonal of the parallelogram passing through that same point.
