Questions  

The vectors from origin to the points A and B are A=3i^6j^+2k^   and  B=2i^+j^2k^ respectively. The area of the triangle OAB be

a
5217   sq.unit
b
2517   sq.unit
c
3517  sq.unit
d
5317   sq.unit

detailed solution

Correct option is A

Given OA¯ = a¯  = 3i^−6j^ +2k^   andOB¯ = b¯  = 2i^+j^ −2k^   ∴  a→ ×b→ = i^j^k^3−6221−2= 12−2i^ +4+6j^+3+12k^= 10i^ +10j^+15k^  ⇒ |a→×b→|= 102+102+152= 425 = 517Area of ∆OAB = = 12|a→ ×b→| = 5172 sq.unit.
