If a , b , c , d are position vectors of 4 points such that 2 a +3 b +5 c -10 d = 0 then the ratio in which the line joining c and d divides the line segment joining a and b is
Options
- A2: 3
- B-1: 2
- C2: 1
- D3: 2
Correct answer
D. 3: 2
Step-by-step solution
aligned & 2 a +3 b +5 c -10 d = 0 , 2 a +3 b =10 d -5 c & 2 a +3 b 5 = 2 d - c 1 2 a +3 b 3+2 = 2 d - c 2-1 aligned Line joining c and d divides the line joining a and b in 3:2.
