If the volume of parallelopiped formed b...

If the volume of parallelopiped formed by the vectors a,b,c as three coterminous edges is 27 cu units, then the volume of the parallelopiped have `alpha=a+2b-c,beta=a-b and gamma=a-b-c` as three coterminous edges is

A

27 cubic units

B

9 cubic units

C

81 cubic units

D

none of these

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

We have `|[(veca, vecb, vecc)]|=27` cubic units
Now, `[(vec(alpha),vec(beta), vec(gamma))]=|(1, 2, -1),(1,-1, 0),(1,-1,-1)|[(veca, vecb, vecc)]`
`implies[(vec(alpha),vec(beta),vec(gamma))]=3[(veca, vecb, vecc)]`
`:.` Required volume `=|[vec(alpha),vec(beta),vec(gamma)]|`
`=3|[(veca, vecb, vecc)]|=3xx27=81` cubic units
