Answer» Correct Answer - C Let `veca = 2 hati + hatj - hatk , vec b = 3 hati - 2 hatj + hatk and vec c = hati + 4 hatj - 3 hat k . ` Then, ` A vec B = vec b - vec a = hati -3 hatj + 2 hatk and B vec C = 2 hati + 6 hat j - 4hatk ` Clearly , `B vec C = -2 A vec B = 2 B vec A ` So, points A, B, C are collinear. |
