Let the position vectors of points 'A' and 'B' be i+j+k and 2i+j+3k, respectively. A point 'P' divides the line segment AB internally in the ratio λ:1(λ>0). If O is the origin and OB.OP - 3|OA×OP|² = 6, then λ is equal to 

Given r × a = r × b, which means r × a - r × b = 0 ⇒ r × (a - b) = 0.
This implies that vector r is parallel to vector (a - b).
So, r = λ (a - b) for some scalar λ.
a - b = (2i - 3j + 4k) - (7i + j - 6k) = -5i - 4j + 10k.
So, r = λ (-5i - 4j + 10k).
We are also given r ⋅ (i + 2j + k) = -3.
λ (-5i - 4j + 10k) ⋅ (i + 2j + k) = -3
λ (-51 - 42 + 10*1) = -3
λ (-5 - 8 + 10) = -3
λ (-3) = -3 ⇒ λ = 1.
So, r = 1 * (-5i - 4j + 10k) = -5i - 4j + 10k.
We need to find r ⋅ (2i - 3j + k).
(-5i - 4j + 10k) ⋅ (2i - 3j + k) = (-5) (2) + (-4) (-3) + (10) (1)
= -10 + 12 + 10 = 12.
