    0 / 10

    Consider the vectors a=3i−2j+k and b=i+5j−2k.

    1. Find

      1. a−2b

        [1]
      2. ∣a+b∣

        [2]
    2. Find the angle between a and b.

    Consider the lines with vector equations

    r1​=⎝⎛​1−2a−3​⎠⎞​+λ⎝⎛​a−2a3​⎠⎞​r2​=⎝⎛​a+251​⎠⎞​+μ⎝⎛​a+92−2​⎠⎞​

    where a∈R.

    1. Given that the lines are perpendicular, Find the possible value(s) for a.

      [3]

    Now consider the case where a>0.

    1. Determine with justification whether the lines are parallel, intersecting or skew.
