In subparts (i) and (ii) choose the correct options and in subparts (iii) to (v), answer the questions as instructed.
(i)[1.0]
Consider the following statements and choose the correct option:
Statement 1: If $\vec{a}$ and $\vec{b}$ represents two adjacent sides of a parallelogram then the diagonals are represented by $\vec{a} + \vec{b}$ and $\vec{a} - \vec{b}$.
Statement 2: If $\vec{a}$ and $\vec{b}$ represents two diagonals of a parallelogram then the adjacent sides are represented by $2(\vec{a} + \vec{b})$ and $2(\vec{a} - \vec{b})$.
Which of the following is correct? [Recall]
(a)Only Statement 1
(b)Only Statement 2
(c)Both Statements 1 and 2
(d)Neither Statement 1 nor Statement 2
(ii)[1.0]

(a)$\frac{3}{4}$
(b)$\frac{4}{3}$
(c)$\frac{7}{5}$
(d)1
(iii)[1.0]
If the direction cosines of a line are $\left\langle \frac{1}{c}, \frac{1}{c}, \frac{1}{c} \right\rangle$ then [Understanding]
(a)c > 0
(b)0 < c < 1
(c)c = ±3
(d)c > 2
(iv)[1.0]
If $\vec{a}$ is a unit vector perpendicular to $\vec{b}$ and $(\vec{a} + 2\vec{b}) \cdot (3\vec{a} - \vec{b}) = -5$, find $|\vec{b}|$. [Understanding]
(v)[1.0]
