Find the sum of the vectors \(\vec{a}\)=8\(\hat{i}\)+5\(\hat{j}\) and \(\vec{b}\)=-2\(\hat{i}\)+6\(\hat{j}\)(a) 6\(\hat{i}\)+\(\hat{j}\)(b) 6\(\hat{i}\)+11\(\hat{j}\)(c) 6\(\hat{i}\)-11\(\hat{j}\)(d) \(\hat{i}\)+11\(\hat{j}\)The question was asked by my school teacher while I was bunking the class.The above asked question is from Addition of Vectors topic in portion Vector Algebra of Mathematics – Class 12

Answer»

The CORRECT option is (b) 6\(\hat{i}\)+11\(\hat{j}\)

Explanation: GIVEN that, \(\vec{a}\)=8\(\hat{i}\)+5\(\hat{j}\) and \(\vec{b}\)=-2\(\hat{i}\)+6\(\hat{j}\)

∴The sum of the VECTORS will be

\(\vec{a}+\vec{b}\)=(8\(\hat{i}\)+5\(\hat{j}\))+(-2\(\hat{i}\)+6\(\hat{j}\))

=(8-2) \(\hat{i}\)+(5+6)\(\hat{j}\)

=6\(\hat{i}\)+11\(\hat{j}\)
