The projection of the vector $\vec{a} = \hat{i} - 2\hat{j} + \hat{k}$ on the vector $\vec{b} = 4\hat{i} - 4\hat{j} + 7\hat{k}$ is:

Let $\vec{a}=2 \hat{i}+5 \hat{j}-\hat{k}$,$\vec{b}=2 \hat{i}-2 \hat{j}+2 \hat{k}$ and $\vec{c}$ be three vectors such that $(\vec{c}+\hat{i}) \times (\vec{a}+\vec{b}+\hat{i}) = \vec{a} \times (\vec{c}+\hat{i})$ and $\vec{a} \cdot \vec{c} = -29$. Then $\vec{c} \cdot (-2 \hat{i}+\hat{j}+\hat{k})$ is equal to:

Show that $|\vec{a}| \vec{b}+|\vec{b}| \vec{a}$ is perpendicular to $|\vec{a}| \vec{b}-|\vec{b}| \vec{a},$ for any two nonzero vectors $\vec{a}$ and $\vec{b}.$
