The three vertices of a triangle are at A (7,-1,3), B (-3,3,-4) and C(-3,1, 5). Find: (use Dot product)

a. The vector projection of RAB on RAC
b. The length of the perimeter of the triangle

The three vertices of a triangle are at A(7
To find:
(a) RAB
(b) RAC
(c) The angle BAC
Step3

lution:
)
The vertices of the triangle
A=(7, — 1, 3)= 7i − j + 3k
B=(-3, 3, 4)= −3i + 3j − 4k
C=(−3, 1, 5)= −3i+j+5k
Step4
d)
Where, i, j, and k are the u
Since, the vector RAB is give
RAB=B - A
=(−3i + 3j - 4k)−(7i − j + 3k)
=-3i + 3j - 4k - 7i+j - 3k
=-10i + 4j - 7k
herefore, RAB=-10i +4j - 7k
Since,
A=7i- j + 3k
C=-3i+j+ 5k
The vector RAC is given by
RAC CA
=(-3i+j+5k)-(7i- j + 3k)
=-3i+j+ 5k - 7i+j - 3k
=-10i + 2j + 2k
herefore, RAC=-10i +2j + 2k
