Geometry
+ Operator – This operation adds two vectors. The result vector is reached by adding the
X, Y, and Z properties of the second vector to the same property of the first vector.
Vector3 vt1 = new Vector3(10, 20, 30);
Vector3 vt2 = new Vector3(20, 30, 40);
Vector3 vt3 = vt1 + vt2;
// vt3 = (30, 50, 70)
* Operator - This operation controls the multiplication of a vector by a scalar. It returns the
vector resulting from the multiplication of each of the X, Y, and Z properties of the given
vector by the given scalar.
Vector3 vt1 = new Vector3(10, 20, 30);
Vector3 vt3 = vt1 * 2.0;
//vt3 = (20, 40, 60)
* Operator - This operation controls the multiplication of a scalar by a vector. It returns
the vector resulting from the multiplication of each of the X, Y, and Z properties of the
given vector by the given scalar.
Vector3 vt1 = new Vector3(10, 20, 30);
Vector3 vt3 = 2.0 * vt1;
//vt3 = (20,40,60)
/ Operator - This operation controls the division of a vector by a scalar. It returns the
vector resulting from division of each of the X, Y, and Z properties of the given vector by
the given scalar.
Vector3 vt1 = new Vector3(10, 20, 30);
Vector3 vt3 = vt1 / 2;
//vt3 = (5,10,15)
== Operator - This operation compares two vector objects for equality. Returns true if
the instances are equal. The objects are defined as equal if each of the X, Y, and Z
properties of one matches the same property of the other.

Note:
Comparing Vector3.Null to any other instance will return false. This is to
maintain consistency with the behavior of the floating point NaN comparison.
