Explanation

To solve the problem step by step, we need to find the unit vector \( \hat{a} \) given that the vector \( \hat{c} = \hat{i} - 3\hat{j} + 5\hat{k} \) bisects the angle between the unit vector \( \hat{a} \) and the vector \( \hat{b} = -\hat{i} + 2\hat{j} + 2\hat{k} \).

### Step 1: Understanding the Angle Bisector
The vector \( \hat{c} \) bisects the angle between \( \hat{a} \) and \( \hat{b} \). This means that \( \hat{c} \) is proportional to the sum of \( \hat{a} \) and the unit vector in the direction of \( \hat{b} \).

### Step 2: Finding the Unit Vector of \( \hat{b} \)
First, we need to calculate the magnitude of \( \hat{b} \):
\[ |\hat{b}| = \sqrt{(-1)^2 + 2^2 + 2^2} = \sqrt{1 + 4 + 4} = \sqrt{9} = 3 \]
Thus, the unit vector \( \hat{b}_{\text{unit}} \) is:
\[ \hat{b}_{\text{unit}} = \frac{\hat{b}}{|\hat{b}|} = \frac{-\hat{i} + 2\hat{j} + 2\hat{k}}{3} = -\frac{1}{3}\hat{i} + \frac{2}{3}\hat{j} + \frac{2}{3}\hat{k} \]

### Step 3: Setting Up the Equation
Since \( \hat{c} \) bisects the angle, we can write:
\[ \hat{c} = k(\hat{a} + \hat{b}_{\text{unit}}) \]
for some scalar \( k \). Substituting \( \hat{c} \) and \( \hat{b}_{\text{unit}} \):
\[ \hat{i} - 3\hat{j} + 5\hat{k} = k\left(\hat{a} - \frac{1}{3}\hat{i} + \frac{2}{3}\hat{j} + \frac{2}{3}\hat{k}\right) \]

### Step 4: Expressing \( \hat{a} \)
Let \( \hat{a} = a_1\hat{i} + a_2\hat{j} + a_3\hat{k} \). Then we can rewrite the equation:
\[ \hat{i} - 3\hat{j} + 5\hat{k} = k\left((a_1 - \frac{1}{3})\hat{i} + (a_2 + \frac{2}{3})\hat{j} + (a_3 + \frac{2}{3})\hat{k}\right) \]

### Step 5: Equating Components
From the above equation, we can equate the coefficients of \( \hat{i}, \hat{j}, \) and \( \hat{k} \):
1. \( 1 = k(a_1 - \frac{1}{3}) \)
2. \( -3 = k(a_2 + \frac{2}{3}) \)
3. \( 5 = k(a_3 + \frac{2}{3}) \)

### Step 6: Solving for \( k \)
From the first equation, we can express \( k \):
\[ k = \frac{1}{a_1 - \frac{1}{3}} \]
Substituting \( k \) into the other two equations gives us:
\[ -3 = \frac{1}{a_1 - \frac{1}{3}}(a_2 + \frac{2}{3}) \quad \text{(2)} \]
\[ 5 = \frac{1}{a_1 - \frac{1}{3}}(a_3 + \frac{2}{3}) \quad \text{(3)} \]

### Step 7: Expressing \( a_2 \) and \( a_3 \)
From equation (2):
\[ a_2 + \frac{2}{3} = -3(a_1 - \frac{1}{3}) \implies a_2 = -3a_1 + 1 - \frac{2}{3} = -3a_1 + \frac{1}{3} \]
From equation (3):
\[ a_3 + \frac{2}{3} = 5(a_1 - \frac{1}{3}) \implies a_3 = 5a_1 - \frac{5}{3} - \frac{2}{3} = 5a_1 - \frac{7}{3} \]

### Step 8: Using the Unit Vector Condition
Since \( \hat{a} \) is a unit vector, we have:
\[ a_1^2 + a_2^2 + a_3^2 = 1 \]
Substituting \( a_2 \) and \( a_3 \):
\[ a_1^2 + \left(-3a_1 + \frac{1}{3}\right)^2 + \left(5a_1 - \frac{7}{3}\right)^2 = 1 \]

### Step 9: Solving the Quadratic Equation
Expanding and simplifying the above equation will yield a quadratic in terms of \( a_1 \). Solving this quadratic will give us the possible values for \( a_1 \), which we can then substitute back to find \( a_2 \) and \( a_3 \).

### Step 10: Final Calculation
After solving the quadratic, we find the values of \( a_1, a_2, \) and \( a_3 \) that satisfy the unit vector condition.
