In a triangleABC, if|BC|=8,|CA|=7,|AB|=10, then the projection of the vectorABonACis equal to :

Question diagram: In a triangle A B C , if | B C → | = 8 , | C A → | = 7 , | A

Options:

Answer:
B
Solution:

a=8,b=7,c=10

cosθ=|b|2+|c|2-|a|22|b||c|=1728

Projection of c on b

=|c|cosθ

=10×1728

=8514
