(2i^+6j^+27k^)*(i^+λj^+μk^)=0

i^(6μ27λ)j^(2μ27)+k^(2λ6)=0i^+0j^+0k^

On comparing both side components,

6μ27λ=0,2μ27=02μ=27μ=272,2λ6=02λ=6λ=62=3

 Therefore, the value of μ=272 and λ=3

(a+3b). (7a-5b) = 7|a|² - 5ab + 21ab - 15|b|² = 7|a|²+16ab-15|b|²=0.
(a-4b). (7a-2b) = 7|a|² - 2ab - 28ab + 8|b|² = 7|a|²-30ab+8|b|²=0.
Subtracting: 46ab - 23|b|² = 0 ⇒ 2ab = |b|².
Substituting: 7|a|² + 8|b|² - 15|b|² = 0 ⇒ 7|a|² = 7|b|² ⇒ |a|=|b|.
cosθ = ab/ (|a|b|) = ab/|b|² = (1/2)|b|²/|b|² = 1/2.

a×b=c ⇒ a.c=0,  b.c=0.
|c|² = |a|²|b|² - (a.b)² = (3)|b|² - 1. |c|=√2. So |b|²=1, |b|=1.
Projection of b on a×c.
a×c = a× (a×b) = (a.b)a - (a.a)b = a - 3b.
|a-3b|² = |a|²+9|b|²-6 (a.b) = 3+9-6 = 6.
l = |b. (a-3b)|/|a-3b| = | (a.b)-3|b|²|/√6 = |1

|a × b|² + |a . b|² = |a|²|b|²
8² + (a . b)² = 2² * 5²
64 + (a . b)² = 100
(a . b)² = 36
a . b = 6 (since angle seems acute from options, but could be -6).

a = i + j + 2k
b = -i + 2j + 3k
a + b = 3j + 5k
a . b = -1 + 2 + 6 = 7
a × b = |i,  j,  k; 1, 2; -1, 2, 3| = -i - 5j + 3k
