Assertion: The difference of two vectors...

Assertion: The difference of two vectors A and B can be treated as the sum of two vectors.
Subtraction of vectors can be defined in terms of addition of vectors.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

Let two vectors be `vecA and vecB`. Difference of vectors `vecA and vecB` can be taken as the sum of two vectors `vecA and -vecB`. i.e., `vecA - vecB = vecA = (-vecB)`
