Vector addition worksheet: draw the resultant

An example figure from the Vector Diagram Generator.

On a grid, vector A 4 squares at 30° and vector B 5 squares at 120° drawn head to tail, with no resultant drawn — Two vectors drawn to scale head to tail on a grid: A, 4 squares at 30°, and B, 5 squares at 120°, starting from A’s tip. The resultant is left off, so students draw it from A’s tail to B’s tip and measure it.
