Question
Check whether the vectors $2 \hat{i}+2 \hat{j}+3 \hat{k}_{+}+-3 \hat{i}+3 \hat{j}+2 \hat{k}_t+3 \hat{i}+4 \hat{k}$ form a triangle or not.

Answer

Let, if possible, the three vectors form a triangle ABC

with $\overline{A B}=2 \hat{i}+2 \hat{j}+3 \hat{k}_i \overline{B C}=3 \hat{i}+3 \hat{j}+2 \hat{k}, \overline{A C}=3 \hat{i}+4 \hat{k}$

Now,$\overline{A B}+\overline{B C}$

$=(2 \hat{i}+2 \hat{j}+3 \hat{k})+(-3 \hat{i}+3 \hat{j}+2 \hat{k})$

$=-\hat{i}+5 \hat{j}+5 \hat{k} \neq 3 \hat{i}+4 \hat{k}=\overline{\mathrm{AC}}$

Hence, the three vectors do not form a triangle.
