  1. A \(3, \frac{27}{2}\)
  2. B \(-\frac{27}{2}, 3\)
  3. C \(-1, \frac{11}{3}\)
  4. D \(-\frac{5}{3}, \frac{7}{3}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(3, \frac{27}{2}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\( (2 \hat{i}+6 \hat{j}+27 \hat{k}) \times(\hat{i}+\lambda \hat{j}+\mu \hat{k})=\overrightarrow{0} \implies \text{vectors are parallel} \) \(\frac{2}{1} = \frac{6}{\lambda} = \frac{27}{\mu}\) \(\frac{2}{1} = \frac{6}{\lambda} \implies 2\lambda = 6 \implies \lambda = 3\)…
