Vector vec(A) is 2cm long and is 60^(@) ...

Vector `vec(A)` is 2`cm` long and is `60^(@)` above the x-axis in the first quadrant. Vector `vec(B)` is `2 cm` long and is `60^(@)` below the x-axis in the fourth quadrant. The sum `vec(A)+vec(B)` is a vector of magnitudes

`vecR=vecA+vecB`
`vecR=2cos 60^(@)hati+2sin60^(@)hatj+2cos 60^(@)hati-2sin60^(@)hatj`
`vecR=4cos 60^(@)hati`
`therefore R=2cm`, along x-axis
