In triangle ABC (Fig 10.18), which of the following is not true:

(a) ![]()
(b) ![]()
(c) ![]()
(d) ![]()
We know by triangle law of vectors,
…………..(1)
Therefore, ![]()
Hence (B) is true.
We know that ![]()
Putting in eq(1), we get
![]()
…….(2)
Hence (A) is also true.
Now, ![]()
Putting in eq(2)
![]()
Hence (D) is correct.
We are asked the option which is not true.
Therefore, the correct option is (C).
