Let ∣a→∣=2,∣b→∣=3| \overset{\to}{a} | = 2, | \overset{\to}{b} | = 3 and the angle between the vectors a→\overset{\to}{a} and b→\overset{\to}{b} be π4\dfrac{\pi}{4}. Then ∣(a→+2b→)×(2a→−3b→)∣2| ( \overset{\to}{a} + 2\overset{\to}{b} ) \times ( 2\overset{\to}{a} - 3\overset{\to}{b} ) {|}^{2} is equal to

Correct answer

D. 882882

Step-by-step solution

Given,

∣a→∣=2,∣b→∣=3| \overset{\to}{a} | = 2, | \overset{\to}{b} | = 3 and the angle between the vectors a→\overset{\to}{a} and b→\overset{\to}{b} be π4\dfrac{\pi}{4},

Now solving,

∣(a→+2b→)×(2a→−3b→)∣2| ( \overset{\to}{a} + 2\overset{\to}{b} ) \times ( 2\overset{\to}{a} - 3\overset{\to}{b} ) {|}^{2}

=∣−3(a→×b→)+4(b→×a→)∣2= | - 3 ( \overset{\to}{a} \times \overset{\to}{b} ) + 4 ( \overset{\to}{b} \times \overset{\to}{a} ) {|}^{2} \left\{\text{as}\overset{\to}{a} \times \overset{\to}{a} = 0 \text{ and } \overset{\to}{b} \times \overset{\to}{b} = 0\right\}</p><p></p><p>= | 7 ( \overset{\to}{b} \times \overset{\to}{a} ) {|}^{2}{asb→×a→=−a→×b→}\left\{as\overset{\to}{b}\times\overset{\to}{a} = - \overset{\to}{a}\times\overset{\to}{b}\right\}

=49∣a∣2∣b∣2sin⁡2π4= 49 | a{|}^{2} | b{|}^{2}\sin^{2}\dfrac{\pi}{4}

=49×4×9×12= 49 \times 4 \times 9 \times \dfrac{1}{2}

=882= 882
