Two vectors, 10 and 15 units long, make 60° with each other. Find the magnitude and direction of their resultant with respect to the longer vector. A particle is displaced 60 cm toward the north and is then given a second displacement of 90 cm directly to the east. What is the resultant displacement? With the aid of a ruler and a protractor, find the resultant of the following vectors by geometrical method: 15 km directed 45° North of West and 12 km directed 30° North of East.

When you add two vectors 10N and 5N , you get a resultant R = 15N . What is the angle between the two vectors?

Let $A$ and $\vec{B}$ be the two vectors of magnitude 10 unit each. If they are inclined to the $X$ -axis at angles $30^{\circ}$ and $60^{\circ}$ respectively, find the resultant.
