Question
The value of $\big(\vec{\text{a}}\times\vec{\text{b}}\big)^2$ is:
  1. $|\vec{\text{a}}|^2+\big|\vec{\text{b}}\big|^2-\big(\vec{\text{a}}.\vec{\text{b}}\big)^2$
  2. $|\vec{\text{a}}|^2\big|\vec{\text{b}}\big|^2-\big(\vec{\text{a}}.\vec{\text{b}}\big)^2$
  3. $|\vec{\text{a}}|^2+\big|\vec{\text{b}}\big|^2-2\big(\vec{\text{a}}.\vec{\text{b}}\big)$
  4. $|\vec{\text{a}}|^2+\big|\vec{\text{b}}\big|^2-\vec{\text{a}}.\vec{\text{b}}$

Answer

  1. $|\vec{\text{a}}|^2\big|\vec{\text{b}}\big|^2-\big(\vec{\text{a}}.\vec{\text{b}}\big)^2$

Solution:

$\big(\vec{\text{a}}.\vec{\text{b}}\big)^2+\big|\vec{\text{a}}\times\vec{\text{b}}\big|^2$

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

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

$=|\vec{\text{a}}|^2\big|\vec{\text{b}}\big|^2$ (1)

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

$\therefore\big|\vec{\text{a}}\times\vec{\text{b}}\big|^2=|\vec{\text{a}}|^2\big|\vec{\text{b}}\big|^2-\big(\vec{\text{a}}.\vec{\text{b}}\big)^2$

Thus, the value of $\big(\vec{\text{a}}\times\vec{\text{b}}\big)^2$ is $|\vec{\text{a}}|^2\big|\vec{\text{b}}\big|^2-\big(\vec{\text{a}}.\vec{\text{b}}\big)^2.$

Two fair dice, each with faces numbered $1,2,3,4,5$ and $6$ , are rolled together and the sum of the numbers on the faces is observed. This process is repeated till the sum is either a prime number or a perfect square. Suppose the sum turns out to be a perfect square before it turns out to be a prime number. If $p$ is the probability that this perfect square is an odd number, then the value of $14 p$ is. . . . .
