| style="height:100px; width:500px; text-align:left;" colspan= "3"|Use a [[ruler]] to [[measure]] the length from the start of the first [[vector]] to the end of the second. The length is roughly 6.4cm (636N). Use a [[protractor]] to [[measure]] the [[angle]] from the [[horizontal]]. The [[angle]] should be 12.4° up from the [[horizontal]].
