Parts and what they mean

• Displacement \overrightarrow{OP} (विस्थापन \overrightarrow{OP}) — Magnitude 40 km (drawn to scale), direction 30° west of south.
• Angle 30° from south (दक्षिण से 30° कोण) — Start facing south, then turn 30° towards west.
• Starting point O (आरंभ बिंदु O) — Initial point of the displacement vector.
• End point P (अंतिम बिंदु P) — Terminal point: where you reach.
• North–South line (उत्तर–दक्षिण रेखा) — The reference direction; the angle is measured from S.
• East–West line (पूर्व–पश्चिम रेखा) — West is to the left, so the arrow leans left of south.
