MCQ
Let $A, B , C$ be distinct points with position vectors $\hat i + \hat j,\,\hat i - \hat j,\,p\hat i - q\hat j + r\hat k$ respectively. Points $A, B , C$ are collinear, then which of the following can be correct
  • A
    $p=q=r=1$
  • B
    $p=q=r=0$
  • C
    $p=q=2,r=0$
  • $p=1,q=2,r=0$

Answer

Correct option: D.
$p=1,q=2,r=0$
d
${\overrightarrow {AB}  =  - 2\hat i}$

${\overrightarrow {AC}  = (p - 1)\hat i - (9 + 1)}$

${\hat j + \hat k =  - (1 + 1)\hat j}$

$\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}
{\overrightarrow {AC}  = \lambda \overrightarrow {AB} }&{p = 1}\\
{p - 1 = 0}&{q = 2\lambda  - 1}\\
{( - q + 1) = 2\lambda :e = 0}&{r = 0}
\end{array}$
