Vectors that go in different directions are called orthogonal vectors. This means that the vectors are perpendicular to each other, with a 90 degree angle between them.
The term for vectors that don't lie in a straight line but point in different directions is "non-collinear vectors."
The term for vectors pointing in different directions is called linearly independent vectors. These vectors do not lie on the same line or plane, and they provide unique information to describe a space.
Non-collinear vectors.
The term given to the net figure that results from vector addition is the resultant vector. It represents the combination of all individual vectors' magnitudes and directions.
The resultant of two vectors cannot be a scalar quantity.

Non-collinear vectors.
Coplanar vectors lie within the same plane, meaning they can be represented by arrows with their tails at the same point. Collinear vectors, on the other hand, lie along the same line, meaning they have the same or opposite directions. In essence, coplanar vectors can be parallel or intersecting within the same plane, while collinear vectors are always parallel or antiparallel along the same line.
