Parallelogram of force
text:
The parallelogram of forces is a method for solving the results of applying two forces to an object.
When more than two forces are involved, the geometry is no longer a parallelogram, but the same principles apply to a polygon of forces. The resultant force due to the application of a number of forces can be found geometrically by drawing arrows for each force.
The parallelogram of forces is a graphical manifestation of the addition of vectors.
