Q70 / 160 · AP EAMCET 2025 (24 MAY SHIFT 1) · Mathematics

If the position vectors of the vertices $A, B, C$ of a triangle are $3 \bar{i}+4 \bar{j}-\bar{k}$, $\overline{\mathrm{i}}+3 \overline{\mathrm{j}}+\overline{\mathrm{k}}, 5(\overline{\mathrm{i}}+\overline{\mathrm{j}}+\overline{\mathrm{k}})$ respectively, then the magnitude of the altitude drawn from $A$ on to the side $B C$ is

  • Correct answer
    A
    $\frac{4 \sqrt{5}}{3}$
  • B
    $\frac{5 \sqrt{5}}{3}$
  • C
    $\frac{7 \sqrt{5}}{3}$
  • D
    $\frac{8 \sqrt{5}}{3}$

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'A'.
