Let the pair of vector `veca,vecb` and `vecc,vecd` each determine a plane. Then the planes are parallel if

A

`(vecaxxvecc)xx(vecbxxvecd)=vec0`

B

`(vecaxxvecc).(vecbxxvecd)=vec0`

C

`(vecaxxvecb)xx(veccxxvecd)=vec0`

D

`(vecaxxvecb).(veccxxvecd)=vec0`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
c

`veca xx vecb` is a vector perpendicular to the plane containing `veca and vecb` similarly, `vecc xx vecd` is a vector perpendicular to the plane containing , `vecc and vecd` thus , the two planes will be parallel if their normal i.e., `veca xx vecb and vecc xx vecd` are parallel. thus
`(veca xx vecb) xx (vecc xx vecd)) = vec0`
