Question
Explain and derive parallelogram law of vector additor.
Solution
The parallelogram law of vector addition states that if two vectorsare represented by the two adjacent sides of a parallelogram by both magnitude and direction from a point, then their resultant can be represented by the diagonal of the parallelogramfrom the same point.
