Mathematics Question on Properties of Vectors
Given below are two statements: one is labelled as Assertion A and the other is labelled as Reason R.
Assertion A : Let vector a = (x, y, z) and vector b = (2, 3. 5).
Then a = b if and only if x = 2, y = 3 and z = 5.
Reason R : Two vectors are equal if all their corresponding components are equal.
In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:
A
Both A and R are correct and R is the correct explanation of A
B
Both A and R are correct but R is NOT the correct explanation of A
C
A is correct but R is not correct
D
A is not correct but R is correct
Answer
Both A and R are correct and R is the correct explanation of A
Explanation
Solution
The correct option is(A): Both A and R are correct and R is the correct explanation of A
