MCQ
The points $A\,(a),\,B\,(b),\,C\,(c)$ will be collinear if
  • A
    $a + b + c = 0$
  • $a \times b + b \times c + c \times a = 0$
  • C
    $a\,.\,b + b\,.\,c + c\,.\,a = 0$
  • D
    None of these

Answer

Correct option: B.
$a \times b + b \times c + c \times a = 0$
b
(b) $(b - a) \times (c - b) = 0$ or $b \times c + a \times b + c \times a = 0$.

Let $A, B$ and $C$ be three events such that the probability that exactly one of $A$ and $B$ occurs is $(1-k)$, the probability that exactly one of $B$ and $C$ occurs is $(1-2 k)$, the probability that exactly one of $C$ and $A$ occurs is $(1-k)$ and the probability of all $A, B$ and $C$ occur simultaneously is $k^{2}$, where $0\,<\,\mathrm{k}\,<\,1$. Then the probability that at least one of $\mathrm{A}, \mathrm{B}$ and $\mathrm{C}$ occur is:
