WHAT DOES PARALLELOGRAM RULE MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Parallelogram law

In mathematics, the simplest form of the parallelogram law belongs to elementary geometry. It states that the sum of the squares of the lengths of the four sides of a parallelogram equals the sum of the squares of the lengths of the two diagonals. Using the notation in the diagram on the right, the sides are, , , . But since in Euclidean geometry a parallelogram necessarily has opposite sides equal, or = and =, the law can be stated as, In case the parallelogram is a rectangle, the two diagonals are of equal lengths = so, and the statement reduces to the Pythagorean theorem. For the general quadrilateral with four sides not necessarily equal, where x is the length of the line joining the midpoints of the diagonals. It can be seen from the diagram that, for a parallelogram, x = 0, and the general formula is equivalent to the parallelogram law.

Definition of parallelogram rule in the English dictionary

The definition of parallelogram rule in the dictionary is a rule for finding the resultant of two vectors by constructing a parallelogram with two adjacent sides representing the magnitudes and directions of the vectors, the diagonal through the point of intersection of the vectors representing their resultant.
