Vector Addition

A: ()
B: ()
C: ()

Vectors can be added together by adding each of their components together. Visually, you're just attaching one vector to the end of the other. The gray vector is B slid over to the end of A. \[\textbf{C}=\textbf{A}+\textbf{B}=(A_x+B_x,A_y+B_y)\] \[=((1.0)+(-2.0),(1.0)+(3.0))\] \[=\underline{\underline{(-1.0,4.0)}}\]
