Given the vectors a=(1+t)i^+(1−t)j^+k^, b=(1−t)i^+(1+t)j^+2k^ and c=ti^−tj^+k^,t∈R be such that for α,β,γ∈R,αa+βb+γc=0 ⇒α=β=γ=0. Then, the set of all values of t is
By its given condition :a,b,care linearly independent vectors or they are non-coplanar
We know that when vectors are non-coplanar then, [abc]=0...(1)
Now, [abc]
=∣1+t1−tt1−t1+t−t121∣
C2→C1+C2
=∣1+t1−tt220121∣
=2∣1+t1−tt110121∣
=2[(1+t)−(1−t)+t]
=2[3t]=6t
Now from equation (1) we get, [abc]=0⇒t=0
