Question:medium

If the scalar projection of the vector \(x\mathbf{i} - \mathbf{j} + \mathbf{k}\) on the vector \(2\mathbf{i} - \mathbf{j} + 5\mathbf{k}\) is \(\frac{1}{\sqrt{30}}\) then value of \(x\) is equal to

Show Hint

Scalar projection = \(\frac{\mathbf{a} \cdot \mathbf{b}}{|\mathbf{b}|}\).
