To show that the vectors \( \vec{a} = -2 \hat{i} - 2 \hat{j} + 4 \hat{k} \), \( \vec{b} = -2 \hat{i} + 4 \hat{j} - 2 \hat{k} \), and \( \vec{c} = 4 \hat{i} - 2 \hat{j} - 2 \hat{k} \) are coplanar, we can use the concept that three vectors are coplanar if one of them can be expressed as a linear combination of the other two. ### Step-by-step Solution 1. **Write the vectors**: \[ \vec{a} = -2 \hat{i} - 2 \hat{j} + 4 \hat{k} \] ...
