Best answer

Option 1 is correct \(-\hat{\mathrm{i}}+\hat{\mathrm{j}}-2 \hat{\mathrm{k}}\)

Explaination::

a x b + c = 0

a x (a x b) + a x c = 0

(a.b)a - (a.a)b + a x c = 0

3a - 2b + (-2i - j - k) = 0

2b = 3(j - k) + (-2i - j - k)

2b=3j-3k-2i-j-k

b=\(-2i+2j-4k\over2\)

b=-i+j-2k

b=\(-\hat{\mathrm{i}}+\hat{\mathrm{j}}-2 \hat{\mathrm{k}}\)
