Find $|\overrightarrow{\text{x}}|,$ if for a unit vector $\overrightarrow{\text{a}},(\overrightarrow{\text{x}} - \overrightarrow{\text{a}}).(\overrightarrow{\text{x}} + \overrightarrow{\text{a}}) = 15.$
AnswerGiven $(\overrightarrow{\text{x}} - \overrightarrow{\text{a}}).(\overrightarrow{\text{x}} + \overrightarrow{\text{a}})= 15 $
$\Rightarrow(\overrightarrow{\text{x}})^{2} - (\overrightarrow{\text{a}})^{2} = 15 $
$\Rightarrow\overrightarrow{\text{x}}.\overrightarrow{\text{x}} - \overrightarrow{\text{a}}.\overrightarrow{\text{a}} = 15 \Rightarrow|\overrightarrow{\text{x}}|^{2} - |\overrightarrow{\text{a}}|^{2} = 15 $
$\Rightarrow|\overrightarrow{\text{x}}|^{2} - 1 = 15 \Rightarrow|\overrightarrow{\text{x}}|^{2} = 16$

Answer$\because\overrightarrow{\text{a}} = \overrightarrow{\text{b}}$
$\text{x}\hat{\text{i}} + 2\hat{\text{j}} - \text{z}\hat{\text{k}} = 3\hat{\text{i}} - \text{y}\hat{\text{j}} + \hat{\text{k}}$

If a unit vector $\overrightarrow{\text{a}}$makes angles $\frac{\pi}{3}$with $\hat{\text{i}},\frac{\pi}{4}$with $\hat{\text{j}}$and an acute angle$\theta$ with $\hat{\text{k}},$ then find the value of $\theta.$
AnswerLet l, m, n, be Direction cosines of $\overrightarrow{\text{a}}$
$\therefore\text{l} =\cos\frac{\pi}{3} =\frac{1}{2};\text{m} = \cos\frac{\pi}{4} = \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}};\text{n} = \cos\theta$
$\because\text{l}^{2} + \text{m}^{2} + \text{n}^{2} = 1 $
$\Rightarrow\bigg(\frac{1}{2}\bigg)^{2} + \bigg(\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}\bigg)^{2} + \cos^{2}\theta = 1 $
$\Rightarrow\frac{1}{4} + \frac{1}{2} + \cos^{2}\theta = 1 $
$\Rightarrow\cos^{2}\theta = 1 - \bigg(\frac{1}{4} + \frac{1}{2}\bigg) = 1 - \frac{3}{4} = \frac{1}{4}$
$\Rightarrow\cos\theta =\frac{1}{2}\Rightarrow\theta = \frac{\pi}{3}.$

Find the projection of a $\overrightarrow{a} \text{on} \overrightarrow{b} \text{if} \overrightarrow{a}. \overrightarrow{b} = 8$ and $\overrightarrow{b} = 2\hat{i} + 6\hat{j} + 3\hat{k}.$
AnswerGiven $\overrightarrow{a}. \overrightarrow{b} = 8$$\overrightarrow{b} = 2\hat{i} + 6\hat{j} + 3\hat{k}$
We know projection of $\overrightarrow{a}$ on $\overrightarrow{b}$ $= \frac{\overrightarrow{a}.\overrightarrow{b}}{|\overrightarrow{b}|}$
$= \frac{8}{\sqrt{4 + 36 + 9}} = \frac{8}{7}$

Write the value of p for which $\overrightarrow{a} = 3\hat{i} + 2\hat{j} + 9\hat{k}$ and $\overrightarrow{b} = \hat{i} + \text{p}\hat{j} + 3\hat{k}$ are parallel vectors.
AnswerSince $\overrightarrow{a} || \overrightarrow{b}$ therefore $\overrightarrow{a} = \lambda \overrightarrow{b}$$\Rightarrow (3\hat{i} + 2\hat{j} +9\hat{k} )=\lambda(\hat{i} + {p\hat{j} }+ 3\hat{k})$
$\Rightarrow \lambda = 3,\ 2 = \lambda p,\ 9 =3\lambda$
$\text{or} \lambda = 3, p = \frac{2}{3}$

Write a unit vector in the direction of $\overrightarrow{a} = 2\hat{i} - 6\hat{j} + 3\hat{k}.$
Answer $\frac{2}{7} \hat{i} - \frac{6}{7} \hat{j} + \frac{3}{7} \hat{k}$Unit vector in the direction $\overrightarrow{a} = \frac{\overrightarrow{a}}{|\overrightarrow{b}|} = \hat{a}$
$\Rightarrow \hat{a} = \frac{2\hat{i}- 6\hat{j} + 3\hat{k}}{\sqrt{4 + 36 + 9}}$
$\Rightarrow \hat{a} = \frac{2}{7} \hat{i} - \frac{6}{7} \hat{j} + \frac{3}{7} \hat{k}$

For what value of $\lambda$ are the vectors $\overrightarrow{a} = 2\hat{i} + \lambda\hat{j} + \hat{k}$ and $\overrightarrow{b} = \hat{i} - 2\hat{j} + 3\hat{k}$ prependicular to each other?
Answer $\overrightarrow{a} \text{and} \overrightarrow{b}$ are prependicular if$\overrightarrow{a}.\overrightarrow{b} = 0$
$\Rightarrow(2\hat{i} + \lambda\hat{j} + \hat{k}) .( \hat{i} - 2\hat{j} + 3\hat{k}) = 0$
$\Rightarrow 2 - 2\lambda + 3 = 0 \Rightarrow \lambda= \frac{5}{2}.$

Find a unit vector in the direction of $\overrightarrow{a} = 3\hat{i} - 2\hat{j} + 6\hat{k}$
Answer$\overrightarrow{a} = 3\hat{i} - 2\hat{j} + 6\hat{k}$Unit vector in the direction of $\overrightarrow{a} = \frac{\overrightarrow{a}}{\overrightarrow{|a|}}$
$= \frac{3\hat{i} - 2\hat{j} + 6\hat{k}}{\sqrt{3^{2} +(-2)^{2}+ 6^{2}}} = \frac{1}{7}(3\hat{i} - 2\hat{j} + 6\hat{k})$

Find the angle between the vectors $\overrightarrow{a} = \hat{i} - \hat{j} +\hat{k}$ and $\overrightarrow{b} = \hat{i} + \hat{j} -\hat{k}$
Answer$\overrightarrow{a} = \hat{i} - \hat{j} +\hat{k} \Rightarrow \overrightarrow{|a|} = \sqrt{1^{2} + (-1)^{2} + 1^{2}} = \sqrt{3}$$\overrightarrow{b} = \hat{i} - \hat{j} +\hat{k} \Rightarrow \overrightarrow{|b|} = \sqrt{1^{2} + (1)^{2} + (-1)^{2}} = \sqrt{3}$
$\overrightarrow{a}.\overrightarrow{b} = \overrightarrow{|a|} \overrightarrow{|b|} \cos\Theta$
$\Rightarrow 1-1-1 = \sqrt{3}.\sqrt{3} \cos \theta \Rightarrow -1 = 3 \cos\theta$
$\Rightarrow \cos\theta = -\frac{1}{3} \Rightarrow \theta = \cos^{-1} \bigg(-\frac{1}{3}\bigg)$
