Step-by-step solution

Given,

\overset{\to}{a} = 3\overset{^}{i} + \overset{^}{j} - \overset{^}{k} and \overset{\to}{c} = 2\overset{^}{i} - 3\overset{^}{j} + 3\overset{^}{k} .

And b→\overset{\to}{b} is a vector such that a→=b→×c→\overset{\to}{a} = \overset{\to}{b} \times \overset{\to}{c} and ∣b→∣2=50,| \overset{\to}{b}{|}^{2} = 50,

Now solving, ∣a→∣=∣b→×c→∣| \overset{\to}{a} | = | \overset{\to}{b} \times \overset{\to}{c} |

⇒32+12+12=∣b→∣⋅22+32+32⋅sinθ⇒ \sqrt{{3}^{2} + {1}^{2} + {1}^{2}} = | \overset{\to}{b} | \cdot \sqrt{{2}^{2} + {3}^{2} + {3}^{2}} \cdot sin\theta

⇒11=50⋅22⋅sinθ⇒ \sqrt{11} = \sqrt{50} \cdot \sqrt{22} \cdot sin\theta

∴sinθ=110∴ sin\theta = \dfrac{1}{10} or cosθ=9910cos\theta = \dfrac{\sqrt{99}}{10}

Now solving,\left|72 - {\left|\overset{\to}{b} + \overset{\to}{c}\right|}^{2}\right|weget,</p><p>∣72−∣b→+c→∣2∣we get,</p><p>\left|72 - {\left|\overset{\to}{b} + \overset{\to}{c}\right|}^{2}\right|

=∣72−(∣b→∣2+∣c→∣2+2∣b→∣∣c→∣cosθ)∣= \left|72 - \left({\left|\overset{\to}{b}\right|}^{2} + {\left|\overset{\to}{c}\right|}^{2} + 2\left|\overset{\to}{b}\right|\left|\overset{\to}{c}\right|cos\theta\right)\right|

=∣72−(50+22+2×52.229910)∣= \left|72 - \left(50 + 22 + 2 \times 5\sqrt{2} . \sqrt{22}\dfrac{\sqrt{99}}{10}\right)\right|

= \left|72 - \left(72 + \dfrac{2 \times 5 \times 2 \times 11 \times 3}{10}\right\right|

=∣66∣=66= \left|66\right| = 66
