Solution

The correct option is A

True


We already know the equation of a line passing through the points a and b and is parallel to ab and can be given by r=a+λ(ab) . Here the points are 3i + 4j and i +2j. Therefore equation of line will be, r=i+2j+λ((3i+4j)(i+2j))r=i+2j+λ(2i+2j)r=(1+2λ)i+(2+2λ)j.

The given statement is true.
