19. Sums and differences In the accompanying figure, it looks as if vi + v2 and Vị – V2 are orthogonal. Is this mere coincidence, or are there circumstances under which we may expect the sum of two vectors to be orthogonal to their difference? Give reasons for your answer. V2 V1 + v2 V1 -V2 V1 - V2
