CONCEPT PREVIEW Refer to vectors a through h below. Make a copy or a sketch of each vector, and then draw a sketch to represent each of the following. For example, find a + e by placing a and e so that their initial points coincide. Then use the parallelogram rule to find the resultant, as shown in the figure on the right.

Verified step by step guidance

1. Identify the vectors labeled as 'a' and 'e' from the provided diagram or description.
2. Sketch the vectors 'a' and 'e' on a coordinate plane, ensuring that their initial points coincide.
3. Apply the parallelogram rule: Draw a parallelogram where 'a' and 'e' serve as adjacent sides. The diagonal of this parallelogram starting from the common initial point will represent the resultant vector.
4. Complete the parallelogram by drawing lines parallel to vector 'a' and vector 'e' at the terminal points of each vector.
5. The resultant vector, which is the diagonal of the parallelogram, represents the vector sum 'a + e'. Label this vector appropriately on your sketch.
