Let $$\overrightarrow b = \widehat i + \widehat j + \lambda \widehat k$$, $$\lambda$$ $$\in$$ R. If $$\overrightarrow a $$ is a vector such that $$\overrightarrow a \times \overrightarrow b = 13\widehat i - \widehat j - 4\widehat k$$ and $$\overrightarrow a \,.\,\overrightarrow b + 21 = 0$$, then $$\left( {\overrightarrow b - \overrightarrow a } \right).\,\left( {\widehat k - \widehat j} \right) + \left( {\overrightarrow b + \overrightarrow a } \right).\,\left( {\widehat i - \widehat k} \right)$$ is equal to _____________.

Let $$\theta$$ be the angle between the vectors $$\overrightarrow a $$ and $$\overrightarrow b $$, where $$|\overrightarrow a | = 4,$$ $$|\overrightarrow b | = 3$$ and $$\theta \in \left( {{\pi \over 4},{\pi \over 3}} \right)$$. Then $${\left| {\left( {\overrightarrow a - \overrightarrow b } \right) \times \left( {\overrightarrow a + \overrightarrow b } \right)} \right|^2} + 4{\left( {\overrightarrow a \,.\,\overrightarrow b } \right)^2}$$ is equal to __________.

If the shortest distance between the lines

$$\overrightarrow r = \left( { - \widehat i + 3\widehat k} \right) + \lambda \left( {\widehat i - a\widehat j} \right)$$

and $$\overrightarrow r = \left( { - \widehat j + 2\widehat k} \right) + \mu \left( {\widehat i - \widehat j + \widehat k} \right)$$ is $$\sqrt {{2 \over 3}} $$, then the integral value of a is equal to ___________.
