Vector Calculator

You can enter a vector in two different ways:

  • Magnitude and Angle (polar): How long it is, and which way it points
  • X and Y (Cartesian): How far along and how far up/down it goes

The calculator automatically converts between them and adds them up by summing their X and Y parts.

Angles are in Degrees (like 90°), measured starting from the positive x-axis (pointing East) going counter-clockwise.
