Question
Find $|\vec{\text{a}|}$ and $\big|\vec{\text{b}}\big|$ if
$\big(\vec{\text{a}}+\vec{\text{b}}\big).\big(\vec{\text{a}}-\vec{\text{b}}\big)=3$ and $|\vec{\text{a}}|=2\big|\vec{\text{b}}\big|$
✓

Answer

Here, $\big(\vec{\text{a}}+\vec{\text{b}}\big).\big(\vec{\text{a}}-\vec{\text{b}}\big)=3$

 

$|\vec{\text{a}}|^2-\big|\vec{\text{b}}\big|^2=3$

$\big(2\big|\vec{\text{b}}\big|\big)^2-\big|\vec{\text{b}}\big|^2=3$ $\big[\text{using} |\vec{\text{a}}|=2\big|\vec{\text{b}}\big|\big]$

$4\big|\vec{\text{b}}\big|^2-\big|\vec{\text{b}}\big|^2=3$

$3\big|\vec{\text{b}}\big|^2=3$

$\big|\vec{\text{b}}\big|^2=\frac{3}{3}$

$\big|\vec{\text{b}}\big|^2=1$

$\big|\vec{\text{b}}\big|=1$

$|\vec{\text{a}}|=2\big|\vec{\text{b}}\big|$

$=2(1)$

$|\vec{\text{a}}|=2$

$\big|\vec{\text{b}}\big|=1$
