Question
Show that the vectors a 3i-j+4k, b =i-3j-2k and e= 4i-3j+2k are linearly
independent. Find numbers a, 3 and such that d = 2i + 3j - k can be expressed
in the form d= a + 3b+7c.
. Prove that
(i) the three points A(1, 4, 2), B(3,2, 4) and C(5,0,6) are collinear,
(ii) the four points P(2,-1, 1), Q(1,3,-2), R(-2, 1,-3) and S(3, 2,0) are coplanar.
If a =i+ 3j-k, b 2i+4j- 2k and c =-i+2j + 4k, find a mumber A such that
d = a +b+ Ac is parallel to the yz-plane.
