a=-3 i+7 j+5 k, \quad \mathbf{b}=-3 i+7 j-3 k, \quad c=7 i-5 j-3 k

are the three coterminous edges of a parallelopiped, then

View answer and explanation

Correct option: C

272

Option C (272) is correct because the volume of the parallelopiped is calculated by the absolute value of the determinant of the matrix formed by the vectors, resulting in 272.

\vec r\cdot\vec a = \vec r\cdot\vec b = \vec r\cdot\vec c = 0

for some non-zero vector

\vec r,

then the value of

\left[ {\vec a\vec b\vec c} \right],

is The shortest distance between the lines

\frac{{x - 3}}{2} = \frac{{y - 2}}{3} = \frac{{z - 1}}{{ - 1}}

and

\frac{{x + 3}}{2} = \frac{{y - 6}}{1} = \frac{{z - 5}}{3},

is Let

\mathbf{\vec a} = \widehat \mathbf{i} - \mathbf{\hat k},\;\mathbf{\vec b} = x\widehat \mathbf{i} + \widehat \mathbf{j} + \left( {1 - x} \right)\mathbf{\hat k}

and

\mathbf{\vec c} = y\widehat \mathbf{i} + x\widehat \mathbf{j} + \left( {1 + x - y} \right)\mathbf{\hat k}.

Then

\left[ {\mathbf{\vec a},\;\mathbf{\vec b},\;\mathbf{\vec c}} \right]

depends on If

\vec{a}, \vec{b}

are non-zero vectors, then

((\vec{a} \times \vec{b}) \times \vec{a}) \cdot((\vec{b} \times \vec{a}) \times \vec{b})

equals

a \cdot(a \times b)=

The length of the perpendicular from the origin to the plane passing through the point a and containing the line
