Answer: Option A. -> linearly dependent
:
A
Box=∣∣
∣∣3−2−4−102−213∣∣
∣∣=3(0−2)+2(−3+4)−4(−1−0)=−6+2+4=0
∴Given vectors are coplanar Given vectors are linarly dependent.

Answer: Option A. -> r.(^i+^j+^k)=2
:
A
−−→AB=−−→OB−−−→OA=(3^i+5^j−3^k)−(^i+3^j−5^k)=2^i+2^j+2^k

Answer: Option A. -> (1,1)
:
A
Given that the three vectors are linearly dependent so
→c=l→a+m→b
⇒l+2m=1
l−m=x
⇒x=3y−2
l+m=y
Also, x2+y2+1=3
10y2−12y+2=0
⇒y=1,15
x=1,−75

Answer: Option A. -> ⃗a+⃗b+⃗c=⃗0
:
A
The position vector of the centroid of the triangle is ⃗a+⃗b+⃗c3
Since, the triangle is an equilateral, therefore the orthocenter coincides with the centroid and hence ⃗a+⃗b+⃗c3=⃗0⇒⃗a+⃗b+⃗c=0
