Adding Vectors by Components
13PRACTICE PROBLEM
For the vectors C and D in the figure, find the magnitude and direction (measured as a counterclockwise angle from the positive x-axis) of the vector sum C + D. The order in which vectors are added does not matter because vector addition is commutative.
