Vector Sum
The
Vector Sum
tool creates a resultant vector that is the sum of two selected vectors. The selected
vectors do not have to share a common endpoint (tail) and may also be previously defined vector
sums.
Creating a vector sum
1.
Select
Vector Sum
from the
Construct
toolbox.
2.
Point and click to select any two vectors.
Select the first vector.
Select the second vector.
3.
Click to create or select the initial point for the
resultant vector.
Select a tail point for the vector sum.
Modifying a vector sum
A vector sum cannot be modified directly. Modifying
either one of the selected vectors causes the vector sum
to change accordingly.
