Leta=i^+5j^+αk^, b=i^+3j^+βk^andc=-i^+2j^-3k^be three vectors such that,|b×c|=53andais perpendicular tob.Then the greatest amongst the values of|a|2is ________.

Answer:
90.00
Solution:

a·b=0

1+15+αβ=0

αβ=-16    ...(1)

Also, 

b×c2=75

10+β2·14-5-3β2=75

5β2+30β+40=0

β=-4, -2

α=4, 8

amax2=26+α2max=90
