Statement 1 : In `DeltaABC`, `vec(AB) + vec(BC) + vec(CA) = 0`
Statement 2 : If `vec(OA) = veca, vec(OB) = vecb`, then `vec(AB) = veca + vecb`

A

Both Statement I and Statement II are correct and statement II is the correct explanation of statement I

B

Both statement I and statement II are correct but statement II is not the correct explanation of statement I

C

Statement I is correct but statement II is incorrect

D

Statement II is correct but statement I is incorrect

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
In `DeltaABC,AB+BC=AC=-CA`
or `AB+BC+CA=0`
OA+AB=OB is the triangle law of addition.
Hence, statement 1 is true and statement 2 is false.
