Using Grasshopper to calculate the sum of two vectors?

I was wondering if Grasshopper can help me out with this physics problem I have - I need to sum two vectors - F1 and F2. But, these vectors have their anchor points, and their directions do not lie in the same plane.
If we would look at this as a simple mathematical problem, then we would simply translate one of these two vectors into the anchor point of another one (or some third point) and then by using the Pythagoras theorem we will get the resultant of summation F1 and F2.

But as this is a physics issue, I need some intermediate point (P3) between anchors points of P1 and P2, where the resultant will be located:

Any help on this issue?

I attached the .dxf file of the vectors.

Thank you.

    Hi Djordje,

    You can add two vectors together by using the Addition Component on the Maths Tab.

    If you then want to display this vector at an average location use the Average Component along with the Display component
