    9 . PARALLELOGRAM LAW OF VECTOR

    To determine magnitude & direction of resultant vector, when two vectors act at an angle .

    According to this law if two vectors

    P and

    Q are represented by two adjacent sides of a parallelogramboth pointing outwards as shown in fig. The diagonal drawn through the intersection of the two vectors

    represents the resultant R .

    += QPR

    From triangle OCM

    OC2 = OM2 + CM2

    = (P + Q cos)2 + (Q sin )2

    = P2 + Q2 cos2 + 2PQ cos + Q2 sin2

    Since Q2 (cos2 + sin2) = Q2

    R2 = P2 + Q2 + 2PQ cos

    ++= cosPQ2QPR 22 (Magnitude of resultant vector)

    and tan = OMCM
