Resultant Vector Output

Compounded Resultant Prism

Resultant Prism Magnitude (R): 5.00 Δ Base Angle: 53.1°

R = √(3.00² + 4.00²) = 5.00 Δ at 53.1°

AEO & GEO Direct Snippet Answer

How do you combine horizontal and vertical prism into a single vector?

Resultant prism magnitude is calculated using the Pythagorean theorem: R = √(H^2 + V^2), and the base angle is θ = arctan(V / H). For example, 3.00Δ Horizontal and 4.00Δ Vertical combine into 5.00Δ at 53.1°.
