Question
a (non-zero) vector perpendicular to both ⎛⎝⎜−1−50⎞⎠⎟(−1−50) and ⎛⎝⎜−4−13⎞⎠⎟(−4−13) is
Solution
To find a vector that is perpendicular to both given vectors, we can use the cross product. The cross product of two vectors gives a vector that is perpendicular to both of the original vectors.
The given vectors are: Vector A = (-1, -5, 0) Vector B = (-4, -1, 3)
The cross product of A and B is calculated as follows:
The cross product, C = A x B, is given by:
Cx = AyBz - AzBy = (-53) - (0-1) = -15 Cy = AzBx - AxBz = (0*-4) - (-13) = 3 Cz = AxBy - AyBx = (-1-1) - (-5*-4) = 1 - 20 = -19
So, the vector that is perpendicular to both A and B is C = (-15, 3, -19).
