$${p}=\mathrm{2}{i}−\mathrm{3}{j} \\ $$$${q}=−\mathrm{4}{i}+{mj} \\ $$$${r}={ni}+\mathrm{4}{j} \\ $$$${p}+{q}−{r}=\left(\mathrm{2}−\mathrm{4}−{n}\right){i}+\left(−\mathrm{3}+{m}−\mathrm{4}\right){j} \\ $$$$\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:=\left(−\mathrm{2}−{n}\right){i}+\left({m}−\mathrm{7}\right){j} \\ $$$$\because\:{p}+{q}−{r}\:\mathrm{is}\:\mathrm{a}\:\mathrm{unit}\:\mathrm{vector}. \\ $$$$\therefore\mid{p}+{q}−{r}\mid=\mathrm{1} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow\left(−\mathrm{2}−{n}\right)^{\mathrm{2}} +\left({m}−\mathrm{7}\right)^{\mathrm{2}} =\mathrm{1}\:...\left({A}\right) \\ $$$${Infinite}\:{values}\:{are}\:{possible}\:{for}\:{m},\:{n} \\ $$$${satisfying}\:\left({A}\right) \\ $$ | ||
