To prove that if the vector sum of three forces \( \vec{P}, \vec{Q}, \vec{R} \) acting on a particle is zero, then these vectors form a triangle, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the Given Information We are given three forces \( \vec{P}, \vec{Q}, \vec{R} \) acting on a particle. The vector sum of these forces is represented as: \[ \vec{S} = \vec{P} + \vec{Q} + \vec{R} \] It is given that \( \vec{S} = 0 \). ...
