The method in adding vectors is "add like components to likes".

For example A= Ia1 + Ja2 + Ka3 and B= Ib1 + Jb2 + Kb3 added is :
A+B= I(a1 +b1) + J(a2 + b2) + K(a3 + b3).

I, J and K are the vector components.

Physics really involves vectors V and scalars S called Quaternions Q=S +V.

The method is the same but now likes include vectors and scalars.

Q1 + Q2 = (S1 +S2) + (V1 + V2).

What are the 5 steps in adding vectors using the polygon method?

Polygon Method Of Adding Vector1. Draw the first vector using a scale.2. Connect the tail, the 2nd vector to the arrow head to first vector. Repeat desame procedures with the other vector.3. Join the tail of the first vector to the arrow head of the last vector to determine the magnitude and direction of resultant.4. The length of resultant draw the scale determines the magnitude and the direction is the angle between the arrow head of the last vector.


What are the handicaps in solving complicated vector problems by the parallelogram method?

Parallelogram method is not that accurate because a mechanical tool such as protractor is used in constructing the angle of a vector or in other words it is only an illustration unlike in analytical method of adding vectors, mathematical computation is used which is more accurate than making an illustration to present vectors.

When drawing a vector using the triangle method of addition how do you draw in the resultant vector?

When drawing a vector using the triangle method you will draw in the resultant vector using Pythagorean theorem. This is taught in physics.

Define the angle of the resultant vector?

The resultant vector is the vector that 'results' from adding two or more vectors together. This vector will create some angle with the x -axis and this is the angle of the resultant vector.
