Formula : –

(iii)Three vectors  \(\vec a,\,\vec b\) and \(\vec c\) are coplanar if and only if

\(\vec a.(\vec b\times\vec c)=0\)

Given: -

we know that three vector  \(\vec a,\,\vec b,\,\vec c\) are coplanar if their scalar triple product is zero

\([\vec a,\,\vec b,\vec c]\) = 0

We have

= 1(10 – 42) – 2(15 – 35) – 1(18 – 10)

= 0.

Hence, the Given vector are coplanar.
