I have been searching the forum for a solution to my problem and I havent found one i could use.

What im looking for is a simple way to draw a vector in a graph. Somthing like a=x,y and I would like the results to look somthing like this.

I know i can use other programs than mathcad to get the desired results but a simple way in mathcad to get the desired results would be best.

Anton,

Your attached worksheet doesn't show much at all.

I would also post any worksheets in Mathcad 11 format for a wider audience.

Thank you I will post in Mactcad 11 the next time.

The mathcad dokument wasnt realy meant to show anything. I was just meant to show away Mathcad could show a vector. so dont mind the dokument.

Is it possible to get mathcad to show a vector like in the pic? using a form like a=x,y?

You could use a Polar plot. Would this be suitable?

Nice worksheet.

Will he have to manually calculate the change in the X and Y values though to take account for his angles?

Yes, but that's just some basic geometry. The routines that actually plot the vectors with arrowheads is the hard part, and that's covered in the worksheet.

For all what you want including the literals, better have a scalable graphic package. For just image , use paint.
