Marks: +1, -0
If θ is the angle between two vectors i^−2j^+k^ and 3i^+2j^+k^ , find sin θ
Solution:
Given two vectors are i^−2j^+k^ and 3i^+2j^+k^
⇒ sin θ = |a→×b→||a→||b→| ... (i)
To find a→×b→
a→×b→ = |i^j^k^1−233−21|
⇒ a→×b→ = [- 2 - (- 6)] i^ - (1 - 9) j^ + [- 2 - (- 6)] k^
⇒ a→×b→ = 4i^+8j^+4k^
⇒ |a→×b→| = 42+82+42 = 96 = 4 6 ... (i)
|a→| = 12+(−2)2+32 = 14 ... (ii) and |b→| = 32+(−2)2+32 = 14 ... (iii)
Since sin θ = |a→×b→||a→||b→|
⇒ sin θ = 461414 ... From (i), (ii) and (iii)
⇒ sin θ = 267
