| A ^ + B ^ | = A 2 + B 2 + 2 A B c o s θ

= 1 + 1 + 2 c o s θ

= 2 ( 1 + c o s θ )

= 2 * 2 c o s 2 θ 2

| A ^ + B ^ | = 2 c o s θ 2  -(1)

| A ^ B ^ | = A 2 + B 2 2 A B c o s θ

= 1 + 1 2 c o s θ

= 2 s i n θ 2  -(2)

(2) ÷  (1)

| A ^ B ^ | | A ^ + B ^ | = 2 s i n θ 2 2 c o s θ 2

| A ^ B ^ | = | A ^ + B ^ | t a n θ 2

Mass and temperature are scalars. We can fully describe them by magnitude alone and do not involve direction.

Speed is a scalar quantity. It only has magnitude and no direction, unlike velocity, which is a vector.

Displacement, velocity, and acceleration are common vectors. These three vectors they have both magnitude and direction, and  follow vector addition rules.
