If a vector (2hat(i) + 3hat(j) + 8hat(k)) is perpendicular to the vector (4hat(i) - 4 hat(i) + alphahat(k)), the value of alpha is :

Answer»

`1/2`
`-1/2`
1
-1

Solution :Here the dot product of two `bot`r VECTORS is ZERO i.e.
`(2hati + 3hatj + 8hatk).(4hatj -4hati+ ALPHA k)=0`
`-8 + 12 + 8alpha=0`
or `8 alpha=-4` pr `alpha=-1/2`
