To solve the problem of finding the greatest value of \( 3|\vec{a} + \vec{b}| + |\vec{a} - \vec{b}| \) where \( \vec{a} \) and \( \vec{b} \) are unit vectors, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Express the Magnitudes Since \( \vec{a} \) and \( \vec{b} \) are unit vectors, we know that: \[ |\vec{a}| = 1 \quad \text{and} \quad |\vec{b}| = 1 \] We can express the magnitudes of \( \vec{a} + \vec{b} \) and \( \vec{a} - \vec{b} \) using the dot product: ...
