If position vector of points A,B and C are respectively `hati,hatj, and hatk` and `AB=CX`, then position vector of point X is

A

`-hati+hatj+hatk`

B

`hati-hatj+hatk`

C

`hati+hatj-hatk`

D

`hati+hatj+hatk`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

`AB=Cx implies hatj-hati`= position vecto of point `X-hatk`
`therefore`Position vector of point `X=-hati+hatj+hatk`.
