Question

Given that u=i^2j^+3k^; v=2i^+j^+4k^; w=i^+3j^+3k^  and (uR15)i^+(vR30)j^+(wR20)k^=0 Then find the greatest integer less than or equal to |R|

Moderate
Solution

 Let R=xi^+y^j^+zk^

u=i^2j^+3k^;v=2i^+j^+4k^;w=i^+3j^+3k^(uR15)i^+(vR30)j^+(wR25)k^=0

so,

uR=15x2y+3z=15---ivR=302x+y+4z=30---iiwR=25x+3y+3z=25---iii

Solving, we get 

x=4y=2z=5
