Question
If $\big|\vec{\text{a}}\times\vec{\text{b}}\big|^2+\big|\vec{\text{a}}.\vec{\text{b}}\big|^2=400$ and $|\vec{\text{a}}|=5,$ then write the value of $\big|\vec{\text{b}}\big|.$

Answer

$\big|\vec{\text{a}}\times\vec{\text{b}}\big|^2+\big|\vec{\text{a}}.\vec{\text{b}}\big|^2=400$

$\Rightarrow\Big\{|\vec{\text{a}}|\big|\vec{\text{b}}\big|\sin\theta\Big\}^2+\Big\{|\vec{\text{a}}|\big|\vec{\text{b}}\big|\cos\theta\Big\}^2=400$

$\Rightarrow|\vec{\text{a}}|^2\big|\vec{\text{b}}\big|^2\sin^2\theta+|\vec{\text{a}}|^2\big|\vec{\text{b}}\big|^2\cos^2\theta=400$

$\Rightarrow|\vec{\text{a}}|^2\big|\vec{\text{b}}\big|^2=400$

$\Rightarrow25\times\big|\vec{\text{b}}\big|^2=400$

$\Rightarrow\big|\vec{\text{b}}\big|^2=16$

$\Rightarrow\big|\vec{\text{b}}\big|^2=4$
