MCQ
If $a\,.\,b = a\,.\,c,\,\,a\, \times b = a \times c$ and $a \ne 0,$ then
  • A
    $b = 0$
  • B
    $b \ne c$
  • $b = c$
  • D
    None of these

Answer

Correct option: C.
$b = c$
c
(c) $a\,.\,(b - c) = 0,$ $a \times (b - c) = 0 \Rightarrow b = c$ or $a = 0,$ but $a \ne 0.$

Hence $b - c = 0.$ i.e., $b = c$.
