To prove that vectors \(\vec{a}\) and \(\vec{b}\) are perpendicular given that \(\vec{a} + \vec{b} = \vec{c}\) and \(a^2 + b^2 = c^2\), we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the relationship between vectors We know that if \(\vec{a} + \vec{b} = \vec{c}\), then the magnitude of vector \(\vec{c}\) can be expressed in terms of vectors \(\vec{a}\) and \(\vec{b}\). ### Step 2: Write the expression for the magnitude of \(\vec{c}\) The magnitude of the resultant vector \(\vec{c}\) can be expressed using the formula: \[ ...
