A, B and C are three collincar points such that AB with rightwards arrow on top space equals space straight a with rightwards arrow on top space and space BC with rightwards arrow on top space equals straight b with rightwards arrow on top. Find the vector AC with rightwards arrow on top.

Solution

We have AC with rightwards arrow on top space equals space AB with rightwards arrow on top space plus space BC with rightwards arrow on top
therefore            AC with rightwards arrow on top space equals space straight a with rightwards arrow on top space plus space straight b with rightwards arrow on top
