    If the lines \[\vec{r}=-\hat{i}+\hat{j}-\hat{k}+\lambda (2\hat{i}+\hat{j}+3\hat{k})\] and \[\vec{r}=-2\hat{i}+\alpha \hat{j}+\hat{k}+,\mu (2\hat{i}+3\hat{j}+4\hat{k})\] \[(\lambda ,\mu \in R)\] are coplanar, then the value of \[\alpha \] is

    A) \[\frac{-9}{2}\]                                                 

    B) \[\frac{11}{2}\]

    C) \[\frac{-11}{2}\]                               

    D) \[\frac{15}{2}\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    We must have \[\left| \begin{matrix}    1 & (1-\alpha ) & -2  \\    2 & 1 & 3  \\    2 & 3 & 4  \\ \end{matrix} \right|=0\Rightarrow \alpha =\frac{15}{2}\]
