Paragraph: Let a vector a =4 i -8 j +k make angles , , with the positive directions of x, y, z axes respectivelv, Question: What is equal to?
Options
- A1 3
- B4 9
- C5 9
- D2 3
Correct answer
B. 4 9
Step-by-step solution
a =4 i -8 j + k If angle made with X axis = =l= a₁ a₁^2+a₂^2+a₃^2 = 4 4^2+(-8)^2+(1)^2 = 4 9
