Step 1

The sum of the vectors 

u +v = (-3, 3) +(-12, 0)u +v = (-15, 3)

The points to the vertex of the parallelogram are opposite to the origin.

Its distance from the origin is the length of one of the diagonals:

So,

||(-15, 3)|| = (-15)2+(3)2 = 225 + 9 = 234So, ||(-15, 3)|| = 326

So, length of one diagonal is 326 units
