Question

Let $\to a, \to b a n d \to c$ be three unit vectors such that
$\to a x (\to b x \to c) = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} (\to b + \to c)$ . If $\to b$ is not parallel to $\to c,$ then the angle between $\to a$ and $\to b$ is :

Solution

$\begin{matrix} \to a \times (\to b \times \to c) = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} (\to b + \to c) (\to a . \to c) \to b - (\to a . \to b) \to c = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} (\to b + \to c) C o m p a r i n g, \to a . \to b = \frac{- \sqrt{3}}{2} | \to a | ∣ ∣ \to b ∣ ∣ cos θ = \frac{- \sqrt{3}}{2} A n g l e b e t w e e n \to a a n d \to b i s θ = 150^{0} \end{matrix}$
