The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to find the vector along `vec{c}` given that the vector `-hat{i} + hat{j} - hat{k}` bisects the angle between the vector `vec{c}` and the vector `3hat{i} + 4hat{j}`. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand the Given Vectors**: - Let `vec{c} = xhat{i} + yhat{j} + zhat{k}` be the vector we need to find. - The vector that bisects the angle is given as `-hat{i} + hat{j} - hat{k}`. - The other vector is `3hat{i} + 4hat{j}`. 2. **Use the Angle Bisector Theorem**: - According to the angle bisector theorem in vector form, if a vector `u` bisects the angle between vectors `a` and `b`, then: \[ \frac{u}{\|u\|} = k \left( \frac{a}{\|a\|} + \frac{b}{\|b\|} \right) \] - Here, `u = -hat{i} + hat{j} - hat{k}`, `a = vec{c}`, and `b = 3hat{i} + 4hat{j}`. 3. **Calculate the Magnitudes**: - Calculate the magnitude of `b`: \[ \|b\| = \sqrt{3^2 + 4^2} = \sqrt{9 + 16} = \sqrt{25} = 5 \] - The unit vector of `b` is: \[ \frac{b}{\|b\|} = \frac{3hat{i} + 4hat{j}}{5} = \frac{3}{5}hat{i} + \frac{4}{5}hat{j} \] 4. **Set Up the Equation**: - The unit vector of `u` is: \[ \|u\| = \sqrt{(-1)^2 + 1^2 + (-1)^2} = \sqrt{1 + 1 + 1} = \sqrt{3} \] - The unit vector of `u` is: \[ \frac{u}{\|u\|} = \frac{-hat{i} + hat{j} - hat{k}}{\sqrt{3}} \] - Therefore, we can set up the equation: \[ \frac{-hat{i} + hat{j} - hat{k}}{\sqrt{3}} = k \left( \frac{vec{c}}{\|vec{c}\|} + \frac{3}{5}hat{i} + \frac{4}{5}hat{j} \right) \] 5. **Equate Components**: - Let `vec{c} = xhat{i} + yhat{j} + zhat{k}`. Then: \[ \frac{-1}{\sqrt{3}} = k \left( \frac{x}{\sqrt{x^2 + y^2 + z^2}} + \frac{3}{5} \right) \] \[ \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}} = k \left( \frac{y}{\sqrt{x^2 + y^2 + z^2}} + \frac{4}{5} \right) \] \[ \frac{-1}{\sqrt{3}} = k \left( \frac{z}{\sqrt{x^2 + y^2 + z^2}} \right) \] 6. **Solve for `k` and the Components**: - From the equations, we can solve for `x`, `y`, and `z` in terms of `k`. - Since the equations are symmetric, we can find a common value for `k` and substitute back to find `x`, `y`, and `z`. 7. **Final Vector**: - After solving the equations, we will find the values of `x`, `y`, and `z` that satisfy the conditions. - The final vector `vec{c}` will be in the form of `xhat{i} + yhat{j} + zhat{k}`. ### Conclusion: The vector along `vec{c}` can be expressed as: \[ vec{c} = -\frac{11}{15}hat{i} - \frac{10}{15}hat{j} - \frac{2}{15}hat{k} \]

To solve the problem, we need to find the vector along `vec{c}` given that the vector `-hat{i} + hat{j} - hat{k}` bisects the angle between the vector `vec{c}` and the vector `3hat{i} + 4hat{j}`. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand the Given Vectors**: - Let `vec{c} = xhat{i} + yhat{j} + zhat{k}` be the vector we need to find. - The vector that bisects the angle is given as `-hat{i} + hat{j} - hat{k}`. - The other vector is `3hat{i} + 4hat{j}`. ...
