When do two vectors have maximum and minimum magnitude?
Two vectors are max when parallel and min when anti-parallel.
When is the sum of the magnitudes of two vectors equal to the magnitude of the sum of the vectors?
When the vectors are parallel, i.e. both have the same direction.
How would you add two vectors that are not perpendicular or parallel?
To add two vectors that aren't parallel or perpindicular you resolve both of the planes displacement vectors into "x' and "y" components and then add the components together. (parallelogram technique graphically)
When are two vectors said to be equal?
If two vectors are represented by the same magnitude and direction they are said to be equal.

What is an antiparallel force?
When it is not parallel. Parallel is when it is two straight lines: like train tracks are antiparallel, when it is going of course: Like a trapezium.
What is antiparallel?
Antiparallel has a variety of meanings depending on what the subject matter is. For example, in biochemistry, it means the orientation of adjacent molecules. In traffic, its two parallel one-way streets that have traffic travelling in opposite directions.
What does antiparallel mean?
Anti-parallel means the sides of the DNA double helix.
When do two vectors have maximum and minimum magnitude?
Two vectors are max when parallel and min when anti-parallel.
When is the sum of the magnitudes of two vectors equal to the magnitude of the sum of the vectors?
When the vectors are parallel, i.e. both have the same direction.
Can three parallel vectors of uneven magnitude add to zero?
Yes - if you accept vectors pointing in opposite directions as "parallel". Example: 3 + 2 + (-5) = 0
Is it possible to find the sum of two parallel vectors using the parallelogram method?
No, it is simpler than that. Simply add the two magnitudes. The direction will be the same as the parallel vectors.
What is meant by the description antiparallel regarding the strands that make up DNA?
The 5 to 3 direction of one strand runs counter to the 5 to 3 direction of the other strand

When are two vectors said to be equal?
If two vectors are represented by the same magnitude and direction they are said to be equal.
When is a cross product zero?
When the component vectors have equal or opposite directions (sin(Θ) = 0) i.e. the vectors are parallel.
