Question

If $^i \times ((^a -^j) \times^i) +^j \times ((^a -^k) \times^j) +^k \times ((^a -^i) \times^k) = \to 0$ and $\to a = x^i + y^j + z^k,$ then $8 (x^{3} - x y + z x)$ is equal to

Solution

$^i \times ((^a -^j) \times^i) +^j \times ((^a -^k) \times^j) +^k \times ((^a -^i) \times^k) = \to 0$
$⇒{(^i⋅^i)(→a−^j)−(^i⋅(→a−^j))^i} +{(^j⋅^j)(→a−^k)−(^j⋅(→a−^k))^j} +{(^k⋅^k)(→a−^i)−(^k⋅(→a−^i))^k}=→0$
$\Rightarrow \to a -^j - (^i \cdot \to a)^i + \to a -^k - (^j \cdot \to a)^j + \to a -^i - (^k \cdot \to a)^k = \to 0$
$\Rightarrow 3 \to a - (^i +^j +^k) -^a = \to 0$
$\Rightarrow 2 \to a =^i +^j +^k$
$\Rightarrow^a = \frac{1}{2} (^i +^j +^k) = x^i + y^j + z^k$
$∴ x = y = z = \frac{1}{2}$
$8 (x^{3} - x y + z x) = (x^{3} - x^{2} + x^{2}) = 8 \times \frac{1}{8} = 1$
