The triangle method of adding vectors requires that you align the vectors, one after the other, tail to nose, by moving them parallel and perpendicular to their original orientations. The resultant vector is an arrow drawn from the tail of the first vector to the tip of the last vector. 12. The magnitude of the other component vector is zero. 13. Resolve each vector into perpendicular components and add the components that lie along the same axis. The resultant vectors can be added by using the Pythagorean theorem because they are perpendicular. 14.
