well i guess because there are multiple ways to make a distance...let say A to B. it can go round and round before it finally reach B. You can go either direction to reach B. but when it comes to displacement, it demand the shortest distance to reach B, which is only one way to do it, i think this qualify displacement to have a specific direction.

Why displacement is called vector quantity?
Displacement has a direction, thus a vector.
Is displacement sclar or vector quantity?
Displacement is a vector quantity.
When you add a displacement vector to another displacement vectorthe result is?
The result is a net displacement vector.
Is angular displacement is a vector?
angular displacement is a vector quantity when theta (angle) is small, otherwise it is scalar.
What quantity is displacement?
vector

Is displacement sclar or vector quantity?
Displacement is a vector quantity.
Is displacment vector or scalar?
Displacement is a vector quantity and not a scalar quantity. This is because displacement has both magnitude and direction.
When you add a displacement vector to another displacement vectorthe result is?
The result is a net displacement vector.
Is displacement a scalar quantity?
Yes. Displacement requires a direction and hence is a vector
Why finite angular displacement is not a vector?
No no its a true vector for infinite angular displacement
