Question
Show that the vectors $\overrightarrow{\text{a}},\overrightarrow{\text{b}} \text{and}{\overrightarrow{\text{c}}}$ are coplanar $\overrightarrow{\text{a}} +\overrightarrow{\text{b}}, \overrightarrow{\text{b}}+\overrightarrow{\text{c}}\text{and} \overrightarrow{\text{c}} + \overrightarrow{\text{a}}$ are coplanar.

Answer

Given that $\overrightarrow{\text{a}} +\overrightarrow{\text{b}}, \overrightarrow{\text{b}} + \overrightarrow{\text{c}}, \overrightarrow{\text{c}} + \overrightarrow{\text{a}}$ are coplanar
$\therefore[\overrightarrow{\text{a}} +\overrightarrow{\text{b}}, \overrightarrow{\text{b}} + \overrightarrow{\text{c}}, \overrightarrow{\text{c}} + \overrightarrow{\text{a}}] = 0$
$\text{i.e} \overrightarrow{\text{(a}} +\overrightarrow{\text{b})}, \big\{\overrightarrow{\text{(b}} + \overrightarrow{\text{c})} \times\overrightarrow{\text{(c}} + \overrightarrow{\text{a})}\big\} = 0$
$\overrightarrow{\text{(a}} +\overrightarrow{\text{b})}. \big\{\overrightarrow{\text{(b}} \times \overrightarrow{\text{c}}+ \overrightarrow{\text{b}} \times\overrightarrow{\text{a}}\times\overrightarrow{\text{c}} \times \overrightarrow{\text{a})}\big\} = 0$
$\Rightarrow\overrightarrow{\text{a}}.(\overrightarrow{\text{b}}\times\overrightarrow{\text{c})} + \overrightarrow{\text{a}}.(\overrightarrow{\text{b}}\times\overrightarrow{\text{a})} + \overrightarrow{\text{a}}(\overrightarrow{\text{c}}\times\overrightarrow{\text{a})}+\overrightarrow{\text{b}}. (\overrightarrow{\text{b}}\times\overrightarrow{\text{c})} + \overrightarrow{\text{b}}.(\overrightarrow{\text{b}}\times\overrightarrow{\text{a})} + \overrightarrow{\text{b}}.(\overrightarrow{\text{c}}\times\overrightarrow{\text{a})} = 0$
$\Rightarrow 2 [\overrightarrow{\text{a}}, \overrightarrow{\text{b}}, \overrightarrow{\text{c}}] = \text{0 or} [\overrightarrow{\text{a}},\overrightarrow{\text{b}}, \overrightarrow{\text{c] }} = 0$
$\Rightarrow\overrightarrow{\text{a}}, \overrightarrow{\text{b}}, \overrightarrow{\text{c}}\text{are coplanar}.$
