Question

A vector (d) is equally inclined to three vectors a=^i^j+^k, b=2^i+^j and c=3^j2^k. Let x,y,z be three vectors in the plane of a,b;b,c;c,a, respectively. Then which of the following is INCORRECT?

Solution

The correct option is D none of these
a=^i^j+^k,
b=2^i+^j
c=3^j2^k
As,
[abc]=∣ ∣111210032∣ ∣=0
Therefore, a,b and c are coplanar vectors.

As d is equally inclined to a,b and c, so d should be normal to the plane containing vector a,b,c

d.a=d.b=d.c=0
d.x=d.y=d.z=0
