SUMMARY
The discussion focuses on the graphical method of vector addition, specifically the vector triangle method. To determine the resultant displacement, users should draw the two given vectors with arrows and connect their ends. The third side of the triangle formed represents the resultant vector. Proper orientation of the arrows is crucial to ensure accurate addition of the vectors.
