Solution
The correct option is C32 →a=2^i+^j−2^k ⇒∣∣→a∣∣=√4+1+4=3
Now, ∣∣→c−→a∣∣=2√2 ⇒∣∣→c−→a∣∣2=8 ⇒∣∣→c∣∣2+∣∣→a∣∣2−2→c⋅→a=8 ⇒∣∣→c∣∣2+9−2∣∣→c∣∣=8(∵→a⋅→c=∣∣→c∣∣) ⇒|→c|2−2|→c|+1=0 ⇒(∣∣→c∣∣−1)2=0 ∴∣∣→c∣∣=1
And angle between →a×→b and →c is θ=π6 then ∣∣∣(→a×→b)×→c∣∣∣=∣∣∣→a×→b∣∣∣⋅∣∣→c∣∣⋅sinθ =∣∣2^i−2^j+^k∣∣⋅1⋅sinπ6 =32
