Solution

The correct option is A a1i+a2j+a3k, where a1=3/14,a2=±2/14,a3=±1/14
The vector perpendicular to both vector is vector parallel to the unit vector of resultant of cross product of the vectors given.
The cross product of both products =(^i+^j+^k)×(^i+2^j^k)
=3^i+2^j+^k
So, the unit vector parallel to the resultant vector is =±114(3^i+2^j+^k)
