Let the vectors u 1 → = i ^ + j ^ + a k ^ ,   u 2 → = i ^ + b j ^ + k ^ , and u 3 → =…
Solution
Given: and are coplanar.
Also given that,and are coplanar.
Now, using the condition of coplanar we get,
Expanding the determinant along .
Again using the coplanar condition we get,
Apply row transformations,
Expand the determinant along .
(From eq )
Hence this is the correct option.
