MCQ
If $d = \lambda \,(a \times b) + \mu \,(b \times c) + \nu \,(c \times a)$and $[a\,b\,c] = \frac{1}{8},$ then $\lambda + \mu + \nu $ is equal to
  • $8d\,.\,(a + b + c)$
  • B
    $8d\, \times \,(a + b + c)$
  • C
    $\frac{{d\,}}{8}.\,(a + b + c)$
  • D
    $\frac{{d\,}}{8} \times \,(a + b + c)$

Answer

Correct option: A.
$8d\,.\,(a + b + c)$
a
(a) $d\,.\,c = \lambda (a \times b)\,.\,c + \mu (b \times c)\,.\,c + \nu (c \times a)\,.c$

$ = \lambda \,[a\,b\,c] + 0 + 0 = \lambda \,[a\,b\,c] = \frac{\lambda }{8}$

Hence $\lambda = 8(d\,.\,c),$ $\mu = 8(d\,.\,a)$ and $\nu = 8(d\,.\,b)$

Therefore, $\lambda + \mu + \nu = 8d\,.\,c + 8d.\,a + 8d\,.\,b$

$ = 8d\,.\,(a + b + c).$
