They can be represented by a line made with a #2 pencil. The length of the line is
made proportional to the magnitude of the vector, and some kind of identifying
mark is made on or near one end of the line to show the direction of the vector.
Vectors can be represented graphically in a three dimensional framework (x,y,z) or width, breath and depth from a zero origin.
Usually you would add individual forces. You have to add them as vectors. You can do this graphically, or by adding the components (x, y, z) separately.Usually you would add individual forces.

They usually are.
You can graphically add the vectors together without resolving them. However to mathematically add them they need to be resolved to find the new direction.
Force vectors are represented by arrows in a force diagram.

"If two vector quantities are represented by two adjacent sides or a parallelogram then the diagonal of parallelogram will be equal to the resultant of these two vectors."
A vector is represented graphically as an arrow. The direction indicates the direction, the length is proportional to the magnitude of the vector. Note that it is difficult to accurately represent vectors of 3 or more dimensions on a 2-dimensional sheet of paper.

Vectors are quantities that have both value and direction. Such as displacement and Velocity.
You can add the vectors graphically - join them head-to-tail. Or you can solve them algebraically: you can separate them into components, and add the components.
The parallelogram law of vectors states that if two vectors are represented by the sides of a parallelogram, then the diagonal of the parallelogram passing through the point of intersection of the two vectors represents the resultant vector. This means that the sum of the two vectors is equivalent to the diagonal vector.
Yes. This is the basis of cartesian vector notation. With cartesian coordinates, vectors in 2D are represented by two vectors, those in 3D are represented by three. Vectors are generally represented by three vectors, but even if the vector was not in an axial plane, it would be possible to represent the vector as the sum of two vectors at right angles to eachother.
They usually are.
