To determine whether the three vectors \( \vec{a} = 2\hat{i} + 2\hat{j} + 3\hat{k} \), \( \vec{b} = -3\hat{i} + 3\hat{j} + 2\hat{k} \), and \( \vec{c} = 3\hat{i} + 4\hat{k} \) form a triangle, we need to check if the sum of these vectors equals zero. If the sum is zero, then the vectors form a closed figure, which means they can form a triangle. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Write down the vectors**: \[ \vec{a} = 2\hat{i} + 2\hat{j} + 3\hat{k} \] ...
