Let $a$ and $b$ be positive real numbers. Suppose $\overrightarrow{PQ} = a \hat{i} + b \hat{j}$ and $\overrightarrow{PS} = a \hat{i} - b \hat{j}$ are adjacent sides of a parallelogram $PQRS$. Let $\overrightarrow{u}$ and $\overrightarrow{v}$ be the projection vectors of $\overrightarrow{w} = \hat{i} + \hat{j}$ along $\overrightarrow{PQ}$ and $\overrightarrow{PS}$,respectively. If $|\vec{u}| + |\vec{v}| = |\vec{w}|$ and if the area of the parallelogram $PQRS$ is $8$,then which of the following statements is/are $TRUE$?
