About this Simulation

This interactive simulation allows learners to explore vector addition by manipulating two vectors and observing how they combine to form a resultant vector. Students can adjust individual vector components and visualise the geometric relationship between vectors, reinforcing understanding of both component and graphical methods of vector addition.

Learning objectives: Understand how vectors add using the parallelogram and triangle methods | Analyse the relationship between vector components and resultant magnitude and direction | Develop spatial reasoning and mathematical skills in vector algebra
