Question 3 of 90 in this shift, Maths question 3 of 30, Section A.

Let the vectors a⃗=(1+t)i^+(1−t)j^+k^, b⃗=(1−t)i^+(1+t)j^+2k^\vec{a}=(1+t)\hat{i}+(1-t)\hat{j}+\hat{k},\ \vec{b}=(1-t)\hat{i}+(1+t)\hat{j}+2\hat{k} and c⃗=ti^−tj^+k^, t∈R\vec{c}=t\hat{i}-t\hat{j}+\hat{k},\ t\in\mathbf{R} be such that for α,β,γ∈R\alpha,\beta,\gamma\in\mathbf{R}, αa⃗+βb⃗+γc⃗=0⃗⇒α=β=γ=0\alpha\vec{a}+\beta\vec{b}+\gamma\vec{c}=\vec{0}\Rightarrow\alpha=\beta=\gamma=0. Then, the set of all values of tt is :
  1. (1)a non-empty finite set
  2. (2)equal to N\mathbf{N}
  3. (3)equal to R−{0}\mathbf{R}-\{0\}Official answer
  4. (4)equal to R\mathbf{R}
