(a+b)∙c=∣a+b∣×cos θ×∣c∣  =PQ×∣c∣  =(PQ+QR)×∣c∣  =(∣a∣×cos θ_1 +∣b∣×cos θ_2 )×∣c∣  =∣a∣×cos θ_1 ×∣c∣+∣b∣×cos θ_2 ×∣c∣  =a∙c+b∙c

$$\left(\boldsymbol{\mathrm{a}}+\boldsymbol{\mathrm{b}}\right)\centerdot\boldsymbol{\mathrm{c}}=\mid\boldsymbol{\mathrm{a}}+\boldsymbol{\mathrm{b}}\mid×\mathrm{cos}\:\theta×\mid\boldsymbol{\mathrm{c}}\mid \\ $$$$=\mathrm{PQ}×\mid\boldsymbol{\mathrm{c}}\mid \\ $$$$=\left(\mathrm{PQ}+\mathrm{QR}\right)×\mid\boldsymbol{\mathrm{c}}\mid \\ $$$$=\left(\mid\boldsymbol{\mathrm{a}}\mid×\mathrm{cos}\:\theta_{\mathrm{1}} +\mid\boldsymbol{\mathrm{b}}\mid×\mathrm{cos}\:\theta_{\mathrm{2}} \right)×\mid\boldsymbol{\mathrm{c}}\mid \\ $$$$=\mid\boldsymbol{\mathrm{a}}\mid×\mathrm{cos}\:\theta_{\mathrm{1}} ×\mid\boldsymbol{\mathrm{c}}\mid+\mid\boldsymbol{\mathrm{b}}\mid×\mathrm{cos}\:\theta_{\mathrm{2}} ×\mid\boldsymbol{\mathrm{c}}\mid \\ $$$$=\boldsymbol{\mathrm{a}}\centerdot\boldsymbol{\mathrm{c}}+\boldsymbol{\mathrm{b}}\centerdot\boldsymbol{\mathrm{c}} \\ $$
