The vector $\vec{a}=-\hat{i}+2 \hat{j}+\hat{k}$ is rotated through a right angle,passing through the $y$-axis in its way and the resulting vector is $\vec{b}$. Then the projection of $3 \vec{a}+\sqrt{2} \vec{b}$ on $\vec{c}=5 \hat{i}+4 \hat{j}+3 \hat{k}$ is

If $\vec{a}, \vec{b}, \vec{c}$ are the position vectors of the vertices of a triangle,show that $\frac{1}{2}[\vec{b} \times \vec{c}+\vec{c} \times \vec{a}+\vec{a} \times \vec{b}]$ gives the vector area of the triangle. Hence,deduce the condition that the three points $\vec{a}, \vec{b}, \vec{c}$ are collinear. Also,find the unit vector normal to the plane of the triangle.
