Answer:

If the angle between two unit vectors u and v is 3.14/3, then using the law of cosines, ||u + v||^2 = 2 + 2cos(3.14/3) = 2 + 2(0.5) = 3. Hence ||u + v|| = sqrt(3).

To find the value of k such that the system has a unique solution, no solution, or an infinite number of solutions, we can use the determinant of the coefficient matrix. If the determinant is nonzero, then the system has a unique solution. If the determinant is zero and the system of equations is inconsistent, then the system has no solution. If the determinant is zero and the system of equations is consistent, then the system has an infinite number of solutions. In this case, the determinant of the coefficient matrix is zero, which implies that the system has an infinite number of solutions.

The eigen values and eigen vectors of the matrix can be found by solving the characteristic equation, which is obtained by det(A - λI) = 0, where A is the matrix and I is the identity matrix.

For the matrix

2 1 -1

3 2 -3

3 1 -2

the characteristic equation is

(2 - λ)(3 - λ) - 3 = 0

which gives us λ = 1 and λ = 3 as the eigen values.

The corresponding eigen vectors can be found by solving the system of equations (A - λI)x = 0, where x is the eigen vector.

For λ = 1, the eigen vector is (1, -1, 1).

For λ = 3, the eigen vector is (-1, 2, 1).

If f(x) is a polynomial of degree 4 with roots 1, 2, 3, 4 and leading coefficient 1, and g(x) is a polynomial of degree 4 with roots 1, 1/2, 1/3, 1/4 and leading coefficient 1, then the limit of 1/f(x)/g(x) as x approaches infinity does not exist. This can be seen by noting that f(x) and g(x) both grow without bound as x grows without bound, so the ratio of the two polynomials also grows without bound.
