Triangleof Velocities

Triangle of Velocities is merely a modification of the parallelogram of velocities. Thus if the line O A represents a velocity, V₁, in magnitude and direction, and if from the end A of this line another line, A B, be drawn to similarly represent a second velocity, V₂, then the line O B of the triangle O A B will represent the resultant of V₁ and V₂.
