∙ 13y agoYou must find the x and y components of each vector. Then you add up the like x components and the like y components. Using your total x component and total y component you may then apply the pythagorean theorem.

∙ 13y agoTo find the resultant force you need to find both the x and y component of the resultant force. Once you have that, you can use the Pythagorean theorem to find the resultant force.
Use the pythagorean theorem to calculate it.
Cut them into triangles and use the pythagorean theorem
If you drive 9 miles north from your house, then turn and drive 12 miles east, you can use the Pythagorean theorem to calculate that you wind up 15 miles from home. You don't need a graph at all to do that. You just have to know the Pythagorean theorem.
the standard form of the Pythagorean Theorem is :a2 + b2 = c2
You can calculate that with the Pythagorean theorem.
To find the resultant force you need to find both the x and y component of the resultant force. Once you have that, you can use the Pythagorean theorem to find the resultant force.
The formula for resultant displacement can be calculated using the Pythagorean theorem. It is given by: Resultant displacement = √(horizontal displacement^2 + vertical displacement^2)
Yes, the cosine function and Pythagorean theorem are often used to calculate the magnitude and direction of the resultant vector in a two-dimensional vector addition problem. The cosine function is used to determine the direction of the resultant vector, while the Pythagorean theorem is used to calculate its magnitude.
To calculate a vector sum, add the corresponding components of the vectors together. This means adding the x-components to get the resultant x-component, and adding the y-components to get the resultant y-component. The magnitude of the resultant vector can be found using the Pythagorean theorem, and the direction can be determined using trigonometry.
Nonperpendicular vectors need to be resolved into components because the Pythagorean theorem and the tangent function can be applied only to right triangles.

When drawing a vector using the triangle method you will draw in the resultant vector using Pythagorean theorem. This is taught in physics.
Oh yes, the Pythagorean Theorem has been proven.
The Pythagorean theorem uses the right triangle.
