Consider the parallelopiped with side

\vec{a}=3 \hat{i}+2 \hat{j}+\hat{k}, \, \vec{b}=\hat{i}+\hat{j}+2 \hat{k}

and

\vec{c}=\hat{i}+3 \hat{j}+3 \hat{k}

then the angle between

\overrightarrow{{a}}

and the plane containing the face determined by

\vec{b}

and

\vec{c}

View answer and explanation

Correct option: C

\sin ^{-1} \frac{9}{14}

Option C is correct because it involves finding the angle between a vector and a plane using the dot product of the vector and the normal to the plane.
