If vec a ,\ vec b ,\ vec c are non co...

If ` vec a ,\ vec b ,\ vec c` are non coplanar vectors, prove that the following vectors are non coplanar:`\ vec a+2 vec b+3 vec c ,\ 2 vec a+ vec b+3 vec c\ a n d\ vec a+ vec b+ vec c`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

We are given the vectors

`vec A=vec a+2 vec b+3 vec c`

`vec B= 2 vec a+ vec b+3 vec c`

`vec C= vec a+ vec b+ vec c`

Also it is given that `vec a, vec b, vec c` are non-coplanar

Now to show non-coplanar of the vectors we must satisfy the condition
`[ vec(A) quad vec(B) quad vec(C)] != 0`

`rArr |[1,2,3],[2,1,3],[1,1,1]|`
