1, 2, 1
1,2 and 1 may represent the magnitudes of three vectors adding to zero. For example one of the vector of length 1 should make an angle of \[{135}^\circ\] with x axis and the other vector of length 1 makes an angle of \[{225}^\circ\] with x axis. The third vector of length 2 should lie along x axis.
