The length of longer diagonal of the 

parallelogram constructed on. 5a+2b and

a-3b, if it is given that |a|=22,|b|=3 and the

angle between a and b is π4 is 
A
15
B
113
C
593
D

==================================================

SOLUTION

The Correct Answer is  3

Given that,|a|=22,|b|=3

The longer vector is 5a+2b+a-3b=6a-b

Length of one diagonal

=|6a-b|

=36a2+b2-2×6|a|·|b|·cos450

=36×8+9-12×22×3×12

=288+9-12×6=225=15

Other diagonal is 4a+5b.

Its length is

=(4a)2+(5b)2+2x|4a||5b|cos450

=16×8+25×9+40×6=593
