To show that the vector \( \vec{a} + \vec{b} + \vec{c} \) is equally inclined to the vectors \( \vec{a} \), \( \vec{b} \), and \( \vec{c} \), we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the Given Information We know that \( \vec{a} \), \( \vec{b} \), and \( \vec{c} \) are mutually perpendicular vectors of equal magnitudes. This means: - \( \vec{a} \cdot \vec{b} = 0 \) - \( \vec{b} \cdot \vec{c} = 0 \) - \( \vec{c} \cdot \vec{a} = 0 \) - \( |\vec{a}| = |\vec{b}| = |\vec{c}| \) ...
