Previous Year Question (PYQs)
2
Let $\vec A=2\vec i+\vec j-2\vec k$ and $\vec B=\vec i+\vec j$.
If $\vec C$ is a vector such that
$\vec A\cdot\vec C=|\vec C|$,
$|\vec C-\vec A|=2\sqrt2$
and the angle between $\vec A\times\vec B$ and $\vec C$ is $30^\circ$,
then $|(\vec A\times\vec B)\times\vec C|$ is equal to
Solution
$|\vec A\times\vec B|=\sqrt{(2,-2,1)\cdot(2,-2,1)}=3$
Using
$|(\vec A\times\vec B)\times\vec C|=|\vec A\times\vec B||\vec C|\sin30^\circ$
From given conditions, $|\vec C|=1$
Hence
$=3\times1\times\dfrac12=\dfrac32$
Answer: $\boxed{\dfrac32}$
