For p > 0, a vector $${\overrightarrow v _2} = 2\widehat i + (p + 1)\widehat j$$ is obtained by rotating the vector $${\overrightarrow v _1} = \sqrt 3 p\widehat i + \widehat j$$ by an angle $$\theta$$ about origin in counter clockwise direction. If $$\tan \theta = {{\left( {\alpha \sqrt 3 - 2} \right)} \over {\left( {4\sqrt 3 + 3} \right)}}$$, then the value of $$\alpha$$ is equal to _____________.

Let $$\overrightarrow a $$, $$\overrightarrow b $$, $$\overrightarrow c $$ be three mutually perpendicular vectors of the same magnitude and equally inclined at an angle $$\theta$$, with the vector $$\overrightarrow a $$ + $$\overrightarrow b $$ + $$\overrightarrow c $$. Then 36cos²2$$\theta$$ is equal to ___________.

Let P be a plane passing through the points (1, 0, 1), (1, $$-$$2, 1) and (0, 1, $$-$$2). Let a vector $$\overrightarrow a = \alpha \widehat i + \beta \widehat j + \gamma \widehat k$$ be such that $$\overrightarrow a $$ is parallel to the plane P, perpendicular to $$(\widehat i + 2\widehat j + 3\widehat k)$$ and $$\overrightarrow a \,.\,(\widehat i + \widehat j + 2\widehat k) = 2$$, then $${(\alpha - \beta + \gamma )^2}$$ equals ____________.

If the shortest distance between the lines $$\overrightarrow {{r_1}} = \alpha \widehat i + 2\widehat j + 2\widehat k + \lambda (\widehat i - 2\widehat j + 2\widehat k)$$, $$\lambda$$ $$\in$$ R, $$\alpha$$ > 0 and $$\overrightarrow {{r_2}} = - 4\widehat i - \widehat k + \mu (3\widehat i - 2\widehat j - 2\widehat k)$$, $$\mu$$ $$\in$$ R is 9, then $$\alpha$$ is equal to ____________.
