Let be the origin and the position vector ofAandBbe2i^+2j^+k^and2i^+4j^+4k^respectively. If the internal bisector of∠AOBmeets the lineABatC, then the length ofOCis

Options:

Answer:
B
Solution:

We know that, the internal bisector divides base in the same ratio as the two remaining sides.

⇒OAOB=ACBC

⇒22+22+1222+42+42=ACBC

⇒36=ACBC

⇒AC:BC=1:2

⇒C≡1×2+2×23,1×4+2×23,1×4+2×13

⇒C≡2,83,2

⇒OC=22+832+22

⇒OC=8+649=1363

⇒OC=2343
