MCQ
If $\vec{\text{a}},\vec{\text{b}},\vec{\text{c}}$ are non $-$ coplanar vectors, then $\frac{\vec{\text{a}}.\big(\vec{\text{b}}\times\vec{\text{c}}\big)}{\big(\vec{\text{c}}\times\vec{\text{a}}\big).\vec{\text{b}}}+\frac{\vec{\text{b}}.\big(\vec{\text{a}}\times\vec{\text{c}}\big)}{\vec{\text{c}}.\big(\vec{\text{a}}\times\vec{\text{b}}\big)}$ is equal to :
  • ✓
    $0$
  • B
    $2$
  • C
    $1$
  • D
    None of these
✓

Answer

Correct option: A.
$0$
We have
$\frac{\vec{\text{a}}.\big(\vec{\text{b}}\times\vec{\text{c}}\big)}{\big(\vec{\text{c}}\times\vec{\text{a}}\big).\vec{\text{b}}}+\frac{\vec{\text{b}}.\big(\vec{\text{a}}\times\vec{\text{c}}\big)}{\vec{\text{c}}.\big(\vec{\text{a}}\times\vec{\text{b}}\big)}$
$\frac{\big[\vec{\text{a}}\vec{\text{b}}\vec{\text{c}}\big]}{\big[\vec{\text{c}}\vec{\text{a}}\vec{\text{b}}\big]}+\frac{\big[\vec{\text{b}}\vec{\text{a}}\vec{\text{c}}\big]}{\big[\vec{\text{c}}\vec{\text{a}}\vec{\text{b}}\big]}\ ($By definition of scalar tiple product$)$
$=\frac{\big[\vec{\text{a}}\vec{\text{b}}\vec{\text{c}}\big]}{\big[\vec{\text{a}}\vec{\text{b}}\vec{\text{c}}\big]}+\frac{-\big[\vec{\text{a}}\vec{\text{b}}\vec{\text{c}}\big]}{\big[\vec{\text{a}}\vec{\text{b}}\vec{\text{c}}\big]}\ ($Change in cyclic order of vectors changes the sign of the scalar triple product$)$
$=1-1$
$=0$
