In a triangle A B C , if | B C → | = 8 , | C A → | = 7 , | A B → | = 10 , then the…

In a triangle ABC, if |BC|=8,|CA|=7,|AB|=10, then the projection of the vector AB on AC is equal to :
  1. 254
  2. 8514
  3. 12720
  4. 11516

Solution

a=8,b=7,c=10

cosθ=|b|2+|c|2-|a|22|b||c|=1728

Projection of c on b

=|c|cosθ

=10×1728

=8514
