Vector Addition in a Plane
Requires a Wolfram Notebook System
Interact on desktop, mobile and cloud with the free Wolfram Player or other Wolfram Language products.
This is a simple vector addition program, showing the resultant vector (in red) from the addition of two unit vectors. The 
vector is fixed, and the other vector is allowed to pivot about the origin from an angle of 
to 
.
