If a, b, c are three mutually perpendicular vectors, then the projection of the vector [l a/|a| + m b/|b| + n (a+b)/|a+b|] along the angular bisector of vectors a and b may be given as


a) (l2 + m2)/(l2+m2+n2)1/2


b) (l2+m2+n2)1/2


c) (l2+m2)1/2/(l2+m2+n2)1/2


d) (l+m)/21/2

Consider the vectors as i,j,k the unit vectors along the three axes. then

L(i/1)+M(j/1) +N(i+j)/root 2.


 


Now the angular bisector of a and b is given by a/mod(a) +b/mod(b)


implies i+j


now projection of the 1st vector on i+j  is {L(i/1)+M(j/1) +N(i+j)/root 2}cos(angle between the vectors).


See if the method works.

d) (l+m)/21/2


easy


use i,j,k as translational axes
