Question

$A$ and $B$ are two inclined vectors and $R$ is their sum. Choose the correct figure for the given description.

• A.
• B.
• C.
• D.

Answer 1

Answer: (D)

Vectors by definition obey the triangle law of addition. According to which, if vector $B$ is placed with its tail at the head of vector $A$. Then, when we join the tail of $A$ to the head of $B$. The line $OQ$ represents a vector $R$, i.e. the sum of the vectors $A$ and $B$. Thus, figure given in option (d) is correct.
