Question
If the vectors $3\hat{\text{i}}+\text{m}\hat{\text{j}}+\hat{\text{k}}$ and $2\hat{\text{i}}-\hat{\text{j}}-8\hat{\text{k}}$ are orthonal, find m.
✓

Answer

It is given that the vectors are othgonal. so, their dot product is zero.
$\big(3\hat{\text{i}}+\text{m}\hat{\text{j}}+\hat{\text{k}}\big).\big(2\hat{\text{i}}-\hat{\text{j}}-8\hat{\text{k}}\big)=0$
$\Rightarrow6-\text{m}-8=0$
$\Rightarrow-\text{m}-2=0$
$\Rightarrow\text{m}=-2$
