Let $\vec{a}, \vec{b}$ and $\vec{c}$ be three non-zero non-coplanar vectors. Let the position vectors of four points $A, B, C$ and $D$ be $\vec{a}-\vec{b}+\vec{c}$,$\lambda \vec{a}-3 \vec{b}+4 \vec{c}$,$-\vec{a}+2 \vec{b}-3 \vec{c}$ and $2 \vec{a}-4 \vec{b}+6 \vec{c}$ respectively. If $\overrightarrow{AB}$,$\overrightarrow{AC}$ and $\overrightarrow{AD}$ are coplanar,then $\lambda$ is :

  • A
    $4$
  • B
    $6$
  • C
    $2$
  • D

If $\bar{a}=\hat{i}+5 \hat{k}, \bar{b}=2 \hat{i}+3 \hat{k}, \bar{c}=4 \hat{i}-\hat{j}+2 \hat{k}$ and $\bar{d}=\hat{i}-\hat{j}$,then $(\bar{c}-\bar{a}) \cdot(\bar{b} \times \bar{d})=$

Let $\overline{a}, \overline{b}, \overline{c}$ be three non-coplanar vectors and $\overline{p}, \overline{q}, \overline{r}$ be defined by the relations $\overline{p}=\frac{\overline{b} \times \overline{c}}{[\overline{a} \overline{b} \overline{c}]}, \overline{q}=\frac{\overline{c} \times \overline{a}}{[\overline{a} \overline{b} \overline{c}]}, \overline{r}=\frac{\overline{a} \times \overline{b}}{[\overline{a} \overline{b} \overline{c}]}$. Then the value of the expression $(\overline{a}+\overline{b}) \cdot \overline{p}+(\overline{b}+\overline{c}) \cdot \overline{q}+(\overline{c}+\overline{a}) \cdot \overline{r}$ is equal to:

Let $\vec{a} = a_1\hat{i} + a_2\hat{j} + a_3\hat{k}$,$\vec{b} = b_1\hat{i} + b_2\hat{j} + b_3\hat{k}$,and $\vec{c} = c_1\hat{i} + c_2\hat{j} + c_3\hat{k}$ be three non-zero vectors such that $\vec{c}$ is a unit vector perpendicular to both $\vec{a}$ and $\vec{b}$. If the angle between $\vec{a}$ and $\vec{b}$ is $\frac{\pi}{6}$,then $\left| \begin{array}{ccc} a_1 & a_2 & a_3 \\ b_1 & b_2 & b_3 \\ c_1 & c_2 & c_3 \end{array} \right|^2 = \dots$
