If veca,vecb,vecc are such that veca.vec...

If `veca,vecb,vecc` are such that `veca.vecb` = `veca.vecc` then show that `veca` = `vec0` or `vecb` = `vecc` or `veca` is perpendicular to `vecb.vecc`.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Given `veca.vecb` = `veca,vecc`
`impliesveca.(vecb-vecc)` = 0
`implies veca` = 0 or `vecb-vecc` = 0 or `vecabot(vecb-vecc)`
`implies veca` = 0 or `vecb-vecc` or `vecabot(vecb-vecc)
