Given,

a=i^+4j^+2k^b=3i^2j^+7k^c=2i^j^+4k^

Let, d=d1i^+d2j^+d3k^

Since, d is perpendicular to both a&b

d.a=0d1+d24+d32=0(1)d.b=0d13+d2(2)+d3(7)=0d132d2+7d3=0(2)

We know,

c.d=152d1d2+4d3=15(3)From,(1)d1+4d2+2d3=0d1=4d22d3

Putting this value in (3) we get

2(4d22d3)d2+4d3=158d24d3d2+4d3=159d2=15d2=159=53

Putting d1&d2 value in (2), we get

3d12d2+7d3=03(4d22d3)2(53)+7d3=012*(53)6d3+103+7d3=020+d3+103=0d3=20103=60103=703Now,d1=4*532*703=203+1403=1603d1=1603,d2=53,d3=703d=1603i^53j^703k^=13(160i^5j^70k^)

 The reQ.uired vector is 13(160i^5j^70k^)

(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.
