Algebra.Com's Answer #621003 by Fombitz(32388)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! You can form a square. \n" ); document.write( "Start at (0,0). \n" ); document.write( "First vector (1,0). \n" ); document.write( "Second vector (0,1). \n" ); document.write( "Third vector (-1,0). \n" ); document.write( "Fourth vector (0,-1). \n" ); document.write( "So when you add them all together, \n" ); document.write( "(0,0)+(1,0)+(0,1)+(-1,0)+(0,-1)=(0,0) \n" ); document.write( "So you get back to where you started, you closed the polygon, so the resultant vector is zero. \n" ); document.write( " |
