If `vec c = 3vec a+4vec b and 2vec c =vec a -3vec b`, show that (i) `vec c and vec a` have the same direction and `|vec c| gt |vec a|`(ii) `vec b and vec c` have opposite direction and `|vec c| gt |vec b|`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Given,
`c=3⃗a+4⃗b` and `2⃗c=⃗a−3⃗b`,
solving we get ,
`2(3a+4b)=a-3b`
`=>6a+8b=a-3b`
`=>5a=-10b`
`=>a=-2b`
