Question
Let \(\overrightarrow {{\text{OA}}} = \left( {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} { - 1} \\ 0 \\ 4 \end{array}} \right)\) and \(\overrightarrow {{\text{OB}}} = \left( {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} 4 \\ 1 \\ 3 \end{array}} \right)\).
The point C is such that \(\overrightarrow {{\text{AC}}} = \left( {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} { - 1} \\ 1 \\ { - 1} \end{array}} \right)\).
The following diagram shows triangle ABC. Let D be a point on [BC], with acute angle \({\text{ADC}} = \theta \).
(i) Find \(\overrightarrow {{\text{AB}}} \).
(ii) Find \(\left| {\overrightarrow {{\text{AB}}} } \right|\).
Show that the coordinates of C are \(( - 2,{\text{ }}1,{\text{ }}3)\).
Write down an expression in terms of \(\theta \) for
(i) angle ADB;
(ii) area of triangle ABD.
Given that \(\frac{{{\text{area }}\Delta {\text{ABD}}}}{{{\text{area }}\Delta {\text{ACD}}}} = 3\), show that \(\frac{{{\text{BD}}}}{{{\text{BC}}}} = \frac{3}{4}\).
Hence or otherwise, find the coordinates of point D.

eg\(\,\,\,\,\,\)\({\text{BD}} = 3x\) and \({\text{DC}} = x,{\text{ }}\frac{{{\text{BD}}}}{{{\text{DC}}}} = 3\)
correct working A2
eg\(\,\,\,\,\,\)\({\text{BC}} = 4x,{\text{ BD}} + {\text{DC}} = 4{\text{DC, }}\frac{{{\text{BD}}}}{{{\text{BC}}}} = \frac{{3x}}{{4x}},{\text{ }}\frac{{{\text{BD}}}}{{{\text{BC}}}} = \frac{{3{\text{DC}}}}{{4{\text{DC}}}}\)
