- A1600
- B1618
- C1627
- D1609
View written solutionFree
Correct answer: B
- Given vectors
We are given
Also,
We need to find .
- Use cross product property
Recall:
So,
Hence the given equation becomes
Bring both to one side:
That is,
Therefore is parallel to .
So let
- Compute the needed vectors
First,
Thus,
Now compute
Given
so
Compute dot product:
Hence,
Therefore,
- Find
- Option check
- A: ❌
- B: ✅
- C: ❌
- D: ❌
So the correct answer is:
