Consider the vectors a=2i^+3j^-6k^, b=6i^-2j^+3k^ and c=3i^-6j^-2k^ Assertion (A): The three vectors do not form a triangle Reason (R): The three vectors are non-coplanar The correct option among the following is

  1. A (A) is true, (R) is true and (R) is the correct explanation for (A)
  2. B (A) is true, (R) is true but (R) is not the correct explanation for (A)
  3. C (A) is true but (R) is false
  4. D (A) is false but (R)is true
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) (A) is true, (R) is true and (R) is the correct explanation for (A)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Three vectors form a triangle when their sum is zero. Here, a→+b→+c→=11i^-5j^-5k^ So, a→+b→+c→≠0→, Hence, they are linearly independent & non-coplanar. So. (A) & (R) both are true and (R) is the correct explanation for (A).
