Drills
Adding component by component, or chaining arrows nose to tail for the resultant, with subtraction as adding the reverse.
Author note — to cover
Add and subtract column vectors component-wise and diagrammatically nose to tail, the resultant of a two-leg journey, subtraction as adding the reverse vector, parallelogram picture included. G25 keeps both diagrammatic and column forms at both tiers. Routes expressed in a and b come later in this topic. (G25)
