What are coplanar vectors ?

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Definition of Coplanar Vectors**: - Coplanar vectors are defined as vectors that lie in the same geometric plane. This means that if you can draw a flat surface (plane) such that all the vectors can be represented on this surface, then those vectors are coplanar. 2. **Two Vectors**: - Any two vectors are always coplanar. Regardless of their direction or magnitude, you can always find a plane that contains both vectors. For example, if you have vector A and vector B, you can visualize a plane that passes through both vectors. ...
