The vertices of a quadrilateral are A(1,...

The vertices of a quadrilateral are `A(1,2,-1), B(-4, 2,-2), C(4,1,-5)` and `D(2,-1, 3)`. Forces of magnitude `2,3,2N` are acting at point `A` along the lines `AB, AC, AD` respectively.Find their resultant.

A

`(10hati-9hatj+6hatk)/(sqrt(26))`

B

`((hati-9hatj-6hatk)/(sqrt(26)))`

C

`(hati-9hatj+16hatk)/(sqrt(26))`

D

`(hati-19hatj+6hatK)/(sqrt(26))`
