How does the diagram show the rules for adding vectors?

• By placing the tail of vector B at the head of vector A.

• By placing the tail of vector A at the head of vector B.

• By placing the tails of both vectors at the same point.

• By placing the heads of both vectors at the same point.

How is vector subtraction possible?

• By adding the negative version of a vector to another vector

• By adding the positive version of a vector to another vector

• By multiplying the negative version of a vector with another vector

• By dividing the negative version of a vector by another vector
