To add vectors, you can use the component method by adding their corresponding x- and y-components, or the graphical (head-to-tail) method by placing the tail of each subsequent vector at the head of the previous one. The component method yields a resultant vector with (x₁ + x₂, y₁ + y₂) components, while the graphical method draws a resultant vector from the tail of the first vector to the head of the last vector.
Component Method
This is a precise mathematical method for adding vectors when they are expressed in terms of their x and y components.
1. Break down each vector into components:
Determine the x and y components of each vector.
2. Add the x-components:
Add all the x-components together to find the x-component of the resultant vector.
3. Add the y-components:
Add all the y-components together to find the y-component of the resultant vector.
4. Form the resultant vector:
The resultant vector is then expressed as the sum of these new x and y components.
For example, the sum of (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂) is (x₁ + x₂, y₁ + y₂).

Ohhh ok now I learned something new. Not that it's me asking but still
