Question
If $\big|\vec{\text{a}}\times\vec{\text{b}}\big|^2+\big(\vec{\text{a}}.\vec{\text{b}}\big)^2=144$ and $|\vec{\text{a}}|=4,$ find $\big|\vec{\text{b}}\big|.$
✓

Answer

We know
$\big|\vec{\text{a}}\times\vec{\text{b}}\big|^2+\big(\vec{\text{a}}.\vec{\text{b}}\big)^2=|\vec{\text{a}}|^2\big|\vec{\text{b}}\big|^2$
$\Rightarrow144=4^2\big|\vec{\text{b}}\big|^2$
$\Rightarrow144=16\big|\vec{\text{b}}\big|^2$
$\Rightarrow\big|\vec{\text{b}}\big|^2=9$
$\Rightarrow\big|\vec{\text{b}}\big|=3$
