A class XII student appearing for a competitive examination was asked to attempt the following questions.
Let a , bย and cย ๐e
three
non zero vectors.
Question 1

(a) a โฅ b โ
(b) a โฅ b โ
(c) a = bย
(d) None of these
Question 2
If a = i ฬ โ 2j ฬ, b = 2i ฬ + j ฬ + 3k ฬย then evaluate (2a + b) โ [(a + b) ร (a โ 2b)]
(a) 0
(b) 4
(c) 3
(d) 2
Question 3
If a and b are unit vectors and ๐ be the angle between them the, |a โ -b โ | is

(b) 2 sin ฮธ/2
(c) 2 cos ฮธ/2
(d) cos ฮธ/2
Question 4
Let a, bย and c be unit vectors such that a โ b = a โ c = 0 and angle between b and c โ is ฯ/6 then a =
(a) 2(b ร c)
(b) โ2 (b ร c)
(c) ยฑ2 (b ร c)
(d) 2 (b ยฑ c)
Question 5
