The diagram shows a triangular prism with a horizontal rectangular base ADFC, where CF = 40 units and AC = 14 units.
The vertical ends ABC and DEF are isosceles triangles with AB = BC = 25 units.
The midpoints of BE and DF are M and N respectively.
The origin O is at the mid-point of AC.
Unit vectors i, j and k are parallel to OC, ON and OB respectively.
(i) Find the length of OB.
(ii) Express MC and MN in terms of i, j and k
(iii) Evaluate MC.MN and hence find angle CMN giving your answer to the nearest degree.
6. Given that a = and b = and c = find
a. The angle between the directions of a and b.
b. The value of p for which b and c are perpendicular.
