  • A

    $\overrightarrow C $ must be equal to $|\overrightarrow A - \overrightarrow B |$

  • B

    $\overrightarrow C $ must be greater than $|\overrightarrow A - \overrightarrow B |$

  • C

    $\overrightarrow C $ must be less than $|\overrightarrow A - \overrightarrow B |$

  • D

    $\overrightarrow C $ may be equal to $|\overrightarrow A - \overrightarrow B |$
