Question

The number of distinct real values of &beta;, for which the vectors -&beta; 2 i + j + k , i - &beta; 2 j + k and i + j - &beta; 2 k are coplanar, is :- 0 1 2 3

Askiitians Expert Soumyajit IIT-Kharagpur · Answer

Dear Rohit Rastogi,

Ans:- CORRECT ANS IS 2

Let the vectors are a,b,c

As they are coplanar and hence [abc]=0

Solving we get an equation of β which is satisfied by real values of β , iff β²=2

Hence β=+√2 or -√2

Hence 2 values of β are possible.
