Correct answer: 66
- Given vectors
and
We need to find
- Use the property of cross product
Since
we know that is perpendicular to both and .
So,
Let us verify :
So the condition is consistent.
- Use the identity for magnitude of cross product
First compute and :
Also given:
Hence,
Therefore,
- Find
Using
we get
So the two possible values are
- Evaluate the required expression
If ,
If ,
In both cases, the value is the same.
- Final answer
