To find the scalar triple product \([ \vec{a} \, \vec{b} \, \vec{c} ]\) of the vectors \(\vec{a} = 2\hat{i} + \hat{j} + 3\hat{k}\), \(\vec{b} = -\hat{i} + 2\hat{j} + \hat{k}\), and \(\vec{c} = -3\hat{i} + \hat{j} + 2\hat{k}\), we can use the determinant of a matrix formed by these vectors. ### Step 1: Set up the determinant We will create a \(3 \times 3\) matrix where the first row contains the coefficients of \(\vec{a}\), the second row contains the coefficients of \(\vec{b}\), and the third row contains the coefficients of \(\vec{c}\). \[ \begin{vmatrix} 2 & 1 & 3 \\ ...
