Show that the point `A ,B ,C` with position vectors ` vec a-2 vec b+3 vec c ,2 vec a+3 vec b-4 vec c` and `-7 vec b+10 vec c` are collinear.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

We have Given:

`A=vec a-2 vec b+3 vec c`
`B=2 vec a+3 vec b-4 vec c`
`C=-7 vec b+10 vec c`

To Prove: A,B,C are collinear

In Proof:
Now we are given the points with position vectors so,
`vec(AB)=`Position Vector of `B`-Position Vector of `A`
