Let $$\overrightarrow a ,\overrightarrow b $$ and $$\overrightarrow c $$ be three non-zero vectors such that no two of these are collinear. If the vector $$\overrightarrow a + 2\overrightarrow b $$ is collinear with $$\overrightarrow c $$ and $$\overrightarrow b + 3\overrightarrow c $$ is collinear with $$\overrightarrow a $$ ($$\lambda $$ being some non-zero scalar) then $$\overrightarrow a + 2\overrightarrow b + 6\overrightarrow c $$ equals to :

Let $${{T_r}}$$ be the rth term of an A.P. whose first term is a and common difference is d. If for some positive integers m, n, $$m \ne n,\,\,{T_m} = {1 \over n}\,\,and\,{T_n} = {1 \over m},\,$$ then a - d equals

If $$u = \sqrt {{a^2}{{\cos }^2}\theta + {b^2}{{\sin }^2}\theta } + \sqrt {{a^2}{{\sin }^2}\theta + {b^2}{{\cos }^2}\theta } $$

then the difference between the maximum and minimum values of $${u^2}$$ is given by :

A line makes the same angle $$\theta $$, with each of the $$x$$ and $$z$$ axis.

If the angle $$\beta \,$$, which it makes with y-axis, is such that $$\,{\sin ^2}\beta = 3{\sin ^2}\theta ,$$ then $${\cos ^2}\theta $$ equals :
