Solution

The correct option is B 2

Let O=A^i+B^ȷ+c^k

|O|=2=A2+B2+C2

[cab]=0 (coplanar) ∣ ∣ABc112121∣ ∣=0A(14)B(12)+c(21)=03A+B+C=03ABC=0 -(i)

And. Oγc

Oc=0

A+B+C=0(ii)

By across multiplication, we got

A=0,B=4k,c=4k

2=0+16k2+16k2

232k2

Squaring both sides

2=32k2

k2=116

k=±14

0=^ȷ^k or ^j+^k
