If a and b are the vectors AB and BC determined by the adjacent sides of a regular hexagon. What are the vectors determined by the other sides taken is order?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Given ,AB =a and BC=b
From the method of vector addition (or subtraction ) we can show that ,

then, DE=-AB=-a
EF=-BC=- B and FA=- CD =a-b
