If \(2 \bar{i}+4 \bar{j}-5 \bar{k}, \bar{i}+\bar{j}+\bar{k}, \bar{j}+2 \bar{k}\) are the position vectors of the vertices A, B, C of a triangle respectively, then a unit vector along the median drawn through the vertex \(\mathrm{A}\) is

  1. A \(\frac{1}{\sqrt{174}}(5 \bar{i}+10 \bar{j}-7 \bar{k})\)
  2. B \(\frac{1}{\sqrt{214}}(3 \bar{i}+6 \bar{j}-13 \bar{k})\)
  3. C \(\frac{1}{\sqrt{66}}(\bar{i}+\bar{j}-8 \bar{k})\)
  4. D \(\frac{1}{7}(3 \bar{i}+6 \bar{j}-2 \bar{k})\)

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(\frac{1}{\sqrt{214}}(3 \bar{i}+6 \bar{j}-13 \bar{k})\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Given three position vectors of the verticses of triangle \(A, B, C\) are \(2 \hat{i}+4 \hat{j}-5 \hat{k}, \hat{i}+\hat{y}+\hat{k}\) and \(\hat{i}+2 \hat{k}\) respectively.…
