Statement 1 : Let `A(veca), B(vecb) and C(vecc)` be three points such that `veca = 2hati +hatk , veb = 3hati -hatj +3hatk and vecc =-hati +7hatj -5hatk`. Then OABC is tetrahedron.
Statement 2 : Let `A(veca) , B(vecb) and C(vecc)` be three points such that vectors `veca, vecb and vecc` are non-coplanar. Then OABC is a tetrahedron, where O is the origin.

A

Both the statements are true, and Statement 2 is the correct explanation for Statement 1.

B

Both the statements are true, but Statement 2 is not the correct explanation for Statement 1.

C

Statement 1 is true and Statement 2 is false.

D

Statement 1 is false and Statement 2 is true.

Text Solution
