Answer:

a. It is meaningless.

b. It has meaning.

c. It has meaning.

d. It has meaning.

e. It is meaningless.

f. It is meaningless.

Step-by-step explanation:

a. (a.b).c.

This is meaningless, a.b will give a scalar and we can't take the dot product of the scalar result with vector c.

b. (a.b)c

This has meaning, a.b will give a scalar, the the scalar will be multiply with the vector c.

c. |a|(b.c)

This has meaning, |a| means magnitude of vector a and it will a scalar and this is multiple by the scalar result of b.c

d. a.(b+c)

This has meaning, b+c will give another vector then, the scalar product of the result and vector c will be calculated and it will gives us a scalar answer.

e. a.b+ c

This is meaningless, the dot product of a.b will give a scalar result and the scalar result canont be added to c. We can't add a scalar to a vector.

f. |a|.(a+b)

This is meaningless, |a| means the magnitude of vector a and that is a scalar. The scalar product of a scalar and a vector cannot be calculated.

Answer:

m = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>If two lines are parallel, their slopes are equal. </u>

The slope of x - axis is 0

(why?)

because, slope of a line is given by

\boxed{\mathsf{slope\:of\:a\:line=tan \theta}}

Θ is the angle made by the line with the x- axis.

Here, the line in question is the x- axis itself, and every line makes an angle of 0° with itself.

=> Θ = 0

=> tan Θ = 0

=> slope = 0

and the line in blue is parallel to the X- axis, therefore, it's slope is also 0

(also, a line makes an angle of 0° with the line it's parallel to)
