If vec a ,\ vec b ,\ vec c be the vec...

If ` vec a ,\ vec b ,\ vec c` be the vectors represented by the sides of a triangle, taken in order, then prove that ` vec a+ vec b+ vec c= vec0dot`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Let ABC be a triangle such that
BC=a,CA=b and AB=c

Then, a+b+c=BC+CA+AB `(becauseBC+CA=BA)`
`=-AB+AB`
a+b+c=0 Hence proved.
