Solution

Given
|a|=|c|=|c|=2
Angle between a and b is π3
ab=|a|bcos(π3)
ab=2×2×12
ab=2

Angle between b and c is π3
bc=b|c|cos(π3)
bc=2×2×12
bc=2

Angle between a and c is π3
ac=|a||c|cos(π3)
ac=2×2×12
ac=2

[abc]2=∣ ∣ ∣aaabacbabbbccacbcc∣ ∣ ∣

[abc]2=∣ ∣ ∣ ∣|a|2abacbab2bccacb|c|2∣ ∣ ∣ ∣

[abc]2=∣ ∣422242224∣ ∣
[abc]2=4(164)2(84)+2(48)
[abc]2=4888
[abc]2=32
[abc]=32
[abc]=42

(A) volume of parallelopiped
volume=[abc]
volume=42
Hence (r) is correct matching

(B) height of parallelopiped
volume=a(b×c)

42=(a^n)b|c|sin(π3)

42=height×2×2×32

42=23height

223=height
Hence (p) is correct matching

(C) volume of tetrahedron
volume=[abc]6

volume=426

volume=223
Hence (q) is correct matching

(D)height of tetrahedron
volume=13(Areaofbase)(Height)

223=13(b|c|sin(π3)(Height)

223=height233

height=23
Hence (s) is correct matching
