Most Important Selected Qs for JEE AdvancedMathematicsThree Dimensional Geometry
If a , b , c and d are the position vectors of the points A, B, C and D respectively in three dimensional space no three of A, B, C, D are collinear and satisfy the relation 3 a -2 b + c -2 d = 0 , then :
Options
- AA, B, C and D are coplanar
- BThe line joining the points B and D divides the line joining the point A and C in the ratio 2: 1 .
- CThe line joining the points A and C divides the line joining the points B and D in the ratio 1: 1 .
- DThe four vectors a , b , c and d are linearly dependents.
Correct answer
D. The four vectors a , b , c and d are linearly dependents.
Step-by-step solution
3 a -2 b + c -2 d =0 sum of coefficient =0 a , b , c , d are coplanar Also 2 b +2 d =3 a + c b + d 2 = 3 a + c 4
