Step-by-step solution
Given, a → = i ^ + 2 j ^ + 3 k ^ , b → = i ^ + j ^ - k ^ , a → · c → = 11 , b → · a → × c → = 27 and b → · c → = - 3 b → Now finding, b → × a → we get, b → × a → = i ^ j ^ k ^ 1 1 - 1 1 2 3 = 5 i ^ - 4 j ^ + k ^ Let c → = c 1 i ^ + c 2 j ^ + c 3 k ^ Now solving, a → · c → = 11 we get, c 1 + 2 c 2 + 3 c 3 = 11   . . . . . . . 1 Now solving, b → · c → = - 3 b &
