The values of a, for which the points $$A, B, C$$ with position vectors $$2\widehat i - \widehat j + \widehat k,\,\,\widehat i - 3\widehat j - 5\widehat k$$ and $$a\widehat i - 3\widehat j + \widehat k$$ respectively are the vertices of a right angled triangle with $$C = {\pi \over 2}$$ are :

If $$\overrightarrow a ,\overrightarrow b ,\overrightarrow c $$ are non coplanar vectors and $$\lambda $$ is a real number then

$$\left[ {\lambda \left( {\overrightarrow a + \overrightarrow b } \right)\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,{\lambda ^2}\overrightarrow b \,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\lambda \overrightarrow c } \right] = \left[ {\overrightarrow a \,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\overrightarrow b + \overrightarrow c \,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\overrightarrow b } \right]$$ for :

Let $$a, b$$ and $$c$$ be distinct non-negative numbers. If the vectors $$a\widehat i + a\widehat j + c\widehat k,\,\,\widehat i + \widehat k$$ and $$c\widehat i + c\widehat j + b\widehat k$$ lie in a plane, then $$c$$ is :

Let $$\overrightarrow a \,\, = \,\,\widehat i - \widehat k,\,\,\,\,\,\overrightarrow b \,\,\, = \,\,\,x\widehat i + \widehat j\,\,\, + \,\,\,\left( {1 - x} \right)\widehat k$$ and $$\overrightarrow c \,\, = \,\,y\widehat i + x\widehat j + \left( {1 + x - y} \right)\widehat k.$$ Then $$\left[ {\overrightarrow a ,\overrightarrow b ,\overrightarrow c } \right]$$ depends on :
