If vecP = (vecbxxvecc)/([vecavecbvecc]),...

If `vecP = (vecbxxvecc)/([vecavecbvecc]),vecq=(veccxxveca)/([veca vecb vecc])and vecr = (vecaxxvecb)/([veca vecbvecc]), " where " veca,vecb and vecc` are three non- coplanar vectors then the value of the expression `(veca + vecb + vecc ). (vecp+ vecq+vecr)` is

A

`x [veca vecb vecc] + ([vecp vecqvecr])/x ` has least value 2

B

`x^(2) [veca vecb vecc]^(2) + ([vecp vecqvecr])/x^(2) ` has least value `(3//2^(2//3))`

C

`[vecp vecq vecr] gt 0 `

D

none of these

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
a,c

we have ` [vecp vecq vecr] = 1/ ([ veca vecb vecc])` therefore,
` [vecp vecq vecr] gt 0`
a. ` x gt 0, x [veca vecb vecc] + ([vecp vecq vecr])/x ge 2`
( using ` A.M. ge G.M.`)
b . Similarly, use `A.M. ge G.M`
