Let $\overrightarrow{a}=a_1 \hat{i}+a_2 \hat{j}+a_3 \hat{k}$.
Assertion $(A)$ : The identity $|\overrightarrow{a} \times \hat{i}|^2+|\overrightarrow{a} \times \hat{j}|^2+|\overrightarrow{a} \times \hat{k}|^2=2|\overrightarrow{a}|^2$ holds for $\overrightarrow{a}$.
Reason $(R)$ : $\overrightarrow{a} \times \hat{i}=a_3 \hat{j}-a_2 \hat{k}$,$\overrightarrow{a} \times \hat{j}=a_1 \hat{k}-a_3 \hat{i}$,and $\overrightarrow{a} \times \hat{k}=a_2 \hat{i}-a_1 \hat{j}$.
Which of the following is correct?

• A
  Both $(A)$ and $(R)$ are true and $(R)$ is the correct reason for $(A)$.
• B
  Both $(A)$ and $(R)$ are true but $(R)$ is not the correct reason for $(A)$.
• C
  $(A)$ is true,$(R)$ is false.
• D
  $(A)$ is false,$(R)$ is true.
