Let the vectors (2+a+b)i + (a+2b+c)j - (b+c)k, (1+b)i + 2bj - bk and (2+b)i + 2bj + (1-b)k, a,b,c ∈ R be co-planar. Then which of the following is true?
Let the vectors (2+a+b)i + (a+2b+c)j - (b+c)k, (1+b)i + 2bj - bk and (2+b)i + 2bj + (1-b)k, a,b,c ∈ R be co-planar. Then which of the following is true?
Option 1 -
2a = b + c
Option 2 -
2b = a + c
Option 3 -
a = b + 2c
Option 4 -
3c = a + b

Correct Option - 1
Detailed Solution:Vectors are coplanar. Determinant is zero. Row operations.
This leads to 2a=b+c.
