Solution
The correct option is B(−12,4,0) →b=2→a ⇒4^i+(3−λ2)^j+6^k=4^i+2λ1^j+6^k ⇒3−λ2=2λ1⇒2λ1+λ2=3 ............................(1)
Given →a⋅→c=0 ⇒6+6λ1+3(λ3−1)=0 ⇒2λ1+λ3=−1 .......................(2)
Now (λ1,λ2,λ3)=(λ1,3−2λ1,−1−2λ1) putting λ1=−12⇒(−12,4,0) Now check the options, option (2) is correct.
