TRIANGLE LAW OF VECTOR ADDITION
If two vectors are aligned such that they constitute 2 sides of a triangle in the same order, then the sum of these vectors is given by the 3rd side in opposite order, i.e. joining the tail of the 1st vector to the arrowhead of the 2nd vector.
Hope it helps!☺️
The Triangle Law of Vector Addition states that "If two similar vectors can be represented both in magnitude and direction as two sides of a triangle taken in order, then the third side taken in the reverse order gives the resultant of two vectors both in magnitude and direction..."
The Parallelogram Law of Vector Addition states that "If two similar vectors can be represented both in magnitude and direction as two adjacent sides of a parallelogram with origins at the intersection, then the diagonal from the point of intersection gives the resultant of the two vectors, both in magnitude and direction..."
The Polygon Law of Vector Addition states that "If a number of vectors can be represented as the sides of a polygon taken in order, both in magnitude and direction, then the side which completes the polygon taken in the reverse order, gives the resultant of all the original vectors both in magnitude and direction..."
