To determine when the vector \(\vec{a} + \vec{b}\) bisects the angle between the vectors \(\hat{a}\) and \(\hat{b}\), we can analyze the conditions under which this occurs.
### Step-by-Step Solution:
1. **Understanding Vector Addition**:
The vector \(\vec{a} + \vec{b}\) represents the diagonal of a parallelogram formed by the vectors \(\vec{a}\) and \(\vec{b}\). For \(\vec{a} + \vec{b}\) to bisect the angle between \(\hat{a}\) and \(\hat{b}\), it must create two equal angles with these vectors.
2. **Condition for Angle Bisector**:
