उत्तर

Let A be the point (1, 0, 0) and B be the point (0, 1, 0)

(i.e.,) `vec"OA" = hat"i"` and `vec"OB" = hat"j"`

Then `vec"AB" = vec"OB" - vec"OA"`

= `hat"j" - hat"i"`

= `-hat"i" + hat"j"`

= (– 1, 1, 0)

= (a, a + b, a + b + c)

⇒ a = – 1, a + b = 1 and a + b + c = 0

Now a = – 1

⇒ – 1 + b = 1

a + b + c = 0

⇒ b = 2

– 1 + 2 + c = 0

⇒ c + 1 = 0

⇒ c = – 1

∴ a = – 1, b = 2, c = – 1.
