उत्तर

The direction ratios of the vector `3hat"i" + hat"j" + hat"k"` are (3, 1, 1)

The direction cosines of the vector `3hat"i" + hat"j" + hat"k"` are

`3/sqrt(3^2 + 1^2 + 1^2), 1/sqrt(3^2 + 1^2 + 1^2), 1/sqrt(3^2 + 1^2 + 1^2)`

`3/sqrt(9 + 1 + ), 1/sqrt(9 + 1 + 1), 1/sqrt(9 + 1 + 1)`

`(3/sqrt(11), 1/sqrt(11), 1/sqrt11)`

Direction ratios = (3, 1, 1)

Direction cosines = `(3/sqrt(11), 1/sqrt(11), 1/sqrt11)`
