To prove that \([ \vec{a} + \vec{b}, \vec{b} + \vec{c}, \vec{c} + \vec{a}] = 2[\vec{a}, \vec{b}, \vec{c}]\), we will use the properties of the scalar triple product. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Scalar Triple Product**: The scalar triple product \([ \vec{x}, \vec{y}, \vec{z}] = \vec{x} \cdot (\vec{y} \times \vec{z})\) gives a scalar value that represents the volume of the parallelepiped formed by the vectors \(\vec{x}\), \(\vec{y}\), and \(\vec{z}\). 2. **Expanding the Left-Hand Side**: ...

Prove that [veca+vecb vecb+vecc vecc+veca]=2[vecavecbvecc]

Let veca,vecb, vecc be any three vectors, Statement 1: [(veca+vecb, vecb+vecc,vecc+veca)]=2[(veca, vecb, vecc)] Statement 2: [(vecaxxvecb, vecbxxvecc, veccxxveca)]=[(veca, vecb, vecc)]^(2)

for any three vectors, veca, vecb and vecc , (veca-vecb) . (vecb -vecc) xx (vecc -veca) = 2 veca.vecb xx vecc .

If veca, vecb and vecc are three non-coplanar non-zero vectors, then prove that (veca.veca) vecb xx vecc + (veca.vecb) vecc xx veca + (veca.vecc)veca xx vecb = [vecb vecc veca] veca

If veca, vecb and vecc are three non-coplanar non-zero vectors, then prove that (veca.veca) vecb xx vecc + (veca.vecb) vecc xx veca + (veca.vecc)veca xx vecb = [vecb vecc veca] veca

If veca, vecb and vecc are three non zero vectors such that veca xx vecb = vecc and vecbxx vecc = veca. Prove that veca, vecb and vecc are mutually at right angles and |vecb|=1 and |vecc| =|veca|

If [veca xx vecb vecb xx vecc vecc xx veca]=lambda[veca vecb vecc^(2)] , then lambda is equal to

If |veca|=4, |vecb|=4 and |vecc|=5 such that veca bot vecb + vecc, vecb bot (vecc + veca) and veca bot (veca + vecb) , then |veca + vecb + vecc| is:

given that veca. vecb = veca.vecc, veca xx vecb= veca xx vecc and veca is not a zero vector. Show that vecb=vecc .

given that veca. vecb = veca.vecc, veca xx vecb= veca xx vecc and veca is not a zero vector. Show that vecb=vecc .
