उत्तर

The direction ratio of the vector `3hat"i" - 3hat"k" + 4hat"j"` are (3, 4, – 3)

The direction cosines of the vector `3hat"i" - 3hat"k" + 4hat"j"` are

`3/sqrt(3^2 + 4^2 + (-3)^2), 4/sqrt(3^2 + 4^2 + (-3)^2), (-3)/sqrt(3^2 +4^2 + (-3)^2)`

`3/sqrt(9 + 16 + 9), 4/sqrt(9 + 16 + 9), (-3)/sqrt(9 + 16 + 9)` 

`(3/sqrt(34), 4/sqrt(34), (-3)/sqrt(34))`

Direction ratios = (3, 4, – 3)

Directio cosines = `(3/sqrt(34), 4/sqrt(34), (-3)/sqrt(34))`
