Let the vectors a⃗=(1+t)i^+(1−t)j^+k^\vec{a}=(1+t) \hat{i}+(1-t) \hat{j}+\hat{k}, b⃗=(1−t)i^+(1+t)j^+2k^\vec{b}=(1-t) \hat{i}+(1+t) \hat{j}+2 \hat{k} and c⃗=ti^−tj^+k^,t∈R\vec{c}=t \hat{i}-t \hat{j}+\hat{k}, t \in \mathbf{R} be such that for α,β,γ∈R,αa⃗+βb⃗+γc⃗=0→\alpha, \beta, \gamma \in \mathbf{R}, \alpha \vec{a}+\beta \vec{b}+\gamma \vec{c}=\overrightarrow{0} ⇒α=β=γ=0\Rightarrow \alpha=\beta=\gamma=0. Then, the set of all values of tt is
View answer and explanation
Correct option: C
Equal to R−{0}\mathbf{R}-\{0\}
Option D (Equal to R−{0}\mathbf{R}-\{0\}) is correct because the determinant of the matrix formed by the vectors is non-zero for all tt except t=0t=0, ensuring the vectors are linearly independent.
