Abstract
Vectors are used to represent physical quantities such as displacement, velocity, acceleration, etc.
In this report we are going to apply the Pythagorean Theorem to determine how perpendicular vectors
are, And to find the distance between given angles and consequent vectors each corner point. Finally,
the vectors in graph view to analyze and solve the given questions.

I. Introduction
Vectors are geometrical entities that
have magnitude and direction. A vector can be
represented by a line with an arrow pointing
towards its direction and its length represents
the magnitude of the vector. Therefore, vectors

are represented by arrows; they have initial

years. Vectors are used to represent physical

III. Methodology
In this laboratory activity, the students
need to measure the distance between two
points. The method used by the students is the
measuring stick to measure and find the
distance, and one student listed down the total
of resultant vector with the use of Pythagorean
Theorem, And for the Vector Operations
activity. The students are going to calculate
and answer the problem in the given
worksheet.

V. Discussion
Analysis of the results must be seen in
this section. Data must be interpreted
and explained. Students can use
citations and theories previously stated
in the introduction as further evidence.
Opinions of the presented data must
never be included.

VI. Conclusion
Conclusions do not contain any
citations, raw data, or figures. It is
NOT a summary of the data; rather it
answers the questions posed by the
objectives. It is in paragraph form.

VII. References
Citation must follow the American
