The number of real solutions of the equation $$\eqalign{ & {\sin ^{ - 1}}\left( {\sum\limits_{i = 1}^\infty {} {x^{i + 1}} - x\sum\limits_{i = 1}^\infty {} {{\left( {{x \over 2}} \right)}^i}} \right) \cr & = {\pi \over 2} - {\cos ^1}\left( {\sum\limits_{i = 1}^\infty {} {{\left( {{{ - x} \over 2}} \right)}^i} - \sum\limits_{i = 1}^\infty {} {{\left( { - x} \right)}^i}} \right) \cr} $$ lying in the interval $$\left( { - {1 \over 2},{1 \over 2}} \right)$$ is ........... .

(Here, the inverse trigonometric functions sin^$$-$$1 x and cos^$$-$$1 x assume values in $${\left[ { - {\pi \over 2},{\pi \over 2}} \right]}$$ and $${\left[ {0,\pi } \right]}$$, respectively.)

For each positive integer n, let

$${y_n} = {1 \over n}(n + 1)(n + 2)...{(n + n)^{{1 \over n}}}$$.

For x$$ \in $$R, let [x] be the greatest integer less than or equal to x. If $$\mathop {\lim }\limits_{n \to \infty } {y_n} = L$$, then the value of [L] is ..............

Let a and b be two unit vectors such that a . b = 0. For some x, y$$ \in $$R, let $$\overrightarrow c = x\overrightarrow a + y\overrightarrow b + \overrightarrow a \times \overrightarrow b $$. If | $$\overrightarrow c $$| = 2 and the vector c is inclined at the same angle $$\alpha $$ to both a and b, then the value of $$8{\cos ^2}\alpha $$ is ..............

Let a, b, c three non-zero real numbers such that the equation $$\sqrt 3 a\cos x + 2b\sin x = c,x \in \left[ { - {\pi \over 2},{\pi \over 2}} \right]$$, has two distinct real roots $$\alpha $$ and $$\beta $$ with $$\alpha + \beta = {\pi \over 3}$$. Then, the value of $${b \over a}$$ is ............
