Question

monica took a train 30 miles south to cincinnati. then she took a different train 18 miles east. draw a vector diagram showing monica's trip, including the resultant vector.

Answer 1

the vector diagram should start with a set of x-y axes. From the origin, draw a line down 30 units (miles), and from that point draw a line to the right 18 units. To draw the resultant vector, you simply connect the origin to the final point, making a triangle.
