Scalar quantities only have magnitude, which makes sense to combine using ordinary algebra. But vector quantities have both magnitude and direction. Due to this directional aspect, vectors must obey special rules of vector algebra. Vectors have to specifically follow the triangle law or the parallelogram law of addition to be represented in the graph format. These graphical methods account for both magnitude and direction. This makes sure that the resultant vector accurately reflects the combined effect of the individual vectors. If we apply ordinary algebra, we won't be able to know the directional information.
