The locus of the mid point of the line segment joining the point (4, 3) and the points on the ellipse $${x^2} + 2{y^2} = 4$$ is an ellipse with eccentricity :

Let $$\overrightarrow a = \widehat i + \widehat j + 2\widehat k$$, $$\overrightarrow b = 2\widehat i - 3\widehat j + \widehat k$$ and $$\overrightarrow c = \widehat i - \widehat j + \widehat k$$ be three given vectors. Let $$\overrightarrow v $$ be a vector in the plane of $$\overrightarrow a $$ and $$\overrightarrow b $$ whose projection on $$\overrightarrow c $$ is $${2 \over {\sqrt 3 }}$$. If $$\overrightarrow v \,.\,\widehat j = 7$$, then $$\overrightarrow v \,.\,\left( {\widehat i + \widehat k} \right)$$ is equal to :

The mean and standard deviation of 50 observations are 15 and 2 respectively. It was found that one incorrect observation was taken such that the sum of correct and incorrect observations is 70. If the correct mean is 16, then the correct variance is equal to :

$$16\sin (20^\circ )\sin (40^\circ )\sin (80^\circ )$$ is equal to :
