Question

 The vertices of a ΔABC are A(1,0,0),B(0,2,0),C(0,0,3) . If a,b,-111 are the direction  ratios of the line joining the orthocenter and circumcentre of ΔABC then a+b=

Very difficult
Solution

 The equation of plane ABC is x1+y2+z3=1 if H(α,β,γ) is the orthocenter then 

AHBC,BHCAα=2β=3γ

H lies in the plane of triangle ABC then α1+α4+α9=1

α=3649 H=3649,1849,1249

 The circum center, orthocenter, centroid are collinear and centroid (G)=13,23,1

 The dr'sof HG,3649-13,1849-23,1249-1=59,-44,-111

a=59,b=-44a+b=15
