Let \(|\vec{a}|=2,|\vec{b}|=3\) and the angle between \(\vec{a}\) and \(\vec{b}\) be \(\frac{\pi}{3}\). If a parallelogram is constructed with adjacent sides \(2 \vec{a}+3 \vec{b}\) and \(\vec{a}-\vec{b}\), then its shorter diagonal is of length

  1. A \(108\)
  2. B \(172\)
  3. C \(6 \sqrt{3}\)
  4. D \(2 \sqrt{43}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(6 \sqrt{3}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\begin{gathered} |\vec{a}|=2,|\vec{b}|=3, \theta=\frac{\pi}{3} \\ \vec{a} \cdot \vec{b}=|\vec{a}||\vec{b}| \cos \theta=6 \times \frac{1}{2}=3 \end{gathered}\) Diagonals are \(\vec{p}+\vec{q}\) and \(\vec{p}-\vec{q}\) where…
