Find the direction cosines of a vector which is equally inclined to the x-axis, y-axis and z-axis.

Answer» Correct Answer - `(1)/(sqrt(3)), (1)/(sqrt(3)), (1)/(sqrt(3))`
`cos^(2)alpha+cos^(2)alpha+cos^(2)alpha=1rArr3cos^(2)alpha=1rArrcos alpha=(1)/(sqrt(3))`.
So, the direction cosines of the vector are `(1)/(sqrt(3)), (1)/(sqrt(3)),(1)/(sqrt(3))`.
