Priya says that the sum of two vectors by the parallelogram method is `vecR=5hati`. Subhangi says it is `vecR=hati+4hatj`. Both used the parallelogram method, but one used the wrong diagonal. Which one of the vector pairs below contains the original two vectors.?

A

`vecA=+3hati-2hatj, vecB=-2hati+2hatj`

B

`vecA=-3hati-2hatj, vecB=+2hati+2hatj`

C

`vecA=+3hati+2hatj, vecB=-2hati-2hatj`

D

`vecA=+3hati+2hatj, vecB=-2hati+2hatj`
