Solar Panels have to be installed carefu...

Solar Panels have to be installed carefully so that the tilt of the roof, and the direction to the sun, produce the largest possible electrical power in the solar panels.
A surveyor uses his instrument to determine the coordinates of the four corners of a roof where solar panels are to be mounted. In the picture , suppose the points are labelled counter clockwise from the roof corner nearest to the camera in units of meters `P_(1) (6,8,4) , P_(2) (21,8,4), P_(3) (21,16,10)` and `P_(4)(6,16,10)`

Write the vector in standard notation with `hati,hatj` and `hatk` (where `hati, hatj` and `hatk` are the unit vectors along the three axes).

A

`15hat(i)+0hat(j)+0hat(k),0hat(i)+8hat(j)+6hat(k)`

B

`0hat(i)+6hat(j)+5hat(k),15hat(i)+0hat(j)+0hat(k)`

C

`0hat(i)+0hat(j)+0hat(k),0hat(i)+8hat(j)+6hat(k)`

D

`15hat(i)+0hat(j)+0hat(k),6hat(i)+8hat(i)+0hat(k)`
