i)c×a=−a×c  c×a=−(−i−2j+k)=i+2j−k    ii)a×(b×c)=(a.c)b−(a.b)c    so a×(b×c)=(accosθ_1 )−(abcosθ_2 )  now  a×c=acsinθ_1 n^→   ∣a×c∣=acsinθ_1   sinθ_1 =((√((−1)^2 +(−2)^2 +(1)^2 ))/(ac))=(((√6) )/(ac))  cosθ_1 =((√(a^2 c^2 −6))/(ac))  sinθ_2 =((√(3^2 +1^2 +1^2 ))/(ab))=((√(11))/(ab))  cosθ_2 =((√(a^2 b^2 −11))/(ab))  a×(b×c)=(a.c)b−(a.b)c    =(accosθ_1 )b−(abcosθ_2 )c    a×(b×c)={(√(a^2 c^2 −6))  }b^→  −{(√(a^2 b^2 −11))  }c^→

iii)(a×b).(a×c)={(3×−1)+(1×−2)+(1×1)             ={−3−2+1}=−4
$$\left.{iii}\right)\left({a}×{b}\right).\left({a}×{c}\right)=\left\{\left(\mathrm{3}×−\mathrm{1}\right)+\left(\mathrm{1}×−\mathrm{2}\right)+\left(\mathrm{1}×\mathrm{1}\right)\right. \\ $$$$\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:=\left\{−\mathrm{3}−\mathrm{2}+\mathrm{1}\right\}=−\mathrm{4} \\ $$
