The vectors AB =3 i +4 k and AC =5 i -2 k +4 k are the sies of a triangle ABC . The length of the median through A is
Options
- A33 unit
- B288 unit
- C18 unit
- D72 unit
Correct answer
A. 33 unit
Step-by-step solution
Let A be the origin. Then B =(3,0,4) and C =(5,-1,4) Mid point of BC = ( 3+5 2 , 0-2 2 , 4+4 2 ) i.e. (4,-1,4) Length of medium = (4)^2+(-1)^2+(4)^2 = 33
