Evaluate the following definite integrals. $$\int_{0}^{\pi / 4}\left(\sec ^{2} t \mathbf{i}-2 \cos t \mathbf{j}-\mathbf{k}\right) d t$$
Vectors \(\mathbf{r}\) and \(\mathbf{r}^{\prime}\) for lines a. If \(\mathbf{r}(t)=\langle a t, b t, c t\rangle\) with \(\langle a, b, c\rangle \neq\langle 0,0,0\rangle,\) show that the angle between \(\mathbf{r}\) and \(\mathbf{r}^{\prime}\) is constant for all \(t>0\) b. If \(\mathbf{r}(t)=\left\langle x_{0}+a t, y_{0}+b t, z_{0}+c t\right\rangle,\) where \(x_{0}, y_{0},\) and \(z_{0}\) are not all zero, show that the angle between \(\mathbf{r}\) and \(\mathbf{r}^{\prime}\) varies with \(t\) c. Explain the results of parts (a) and (b) geometrically.
Properties of dot products Let \(\mathbf{u}=\left\langle u_{1}, u_{2}, u_{3}\right\rangle\) \(\mathbf{v}=\left\langle v_{1}, v_{2}, v_{3}\right\rangle,\) and \(\mathbf{w}=\left\langle w_{1}, w_{2}, w_{3}\right\rangle .\) Prove the following vector properties, where \(c\) is a scalar. $$|\mathbf{u} \cdot \mathbf{v}| \leq|\mathbf{u} \| \mathbf{v}|$$

Direction angles and cosines Let \(\mathbf{v}=\langle a, b, c\rangle\) and let \(\alpha, \beta\) and \(\gamma\) be the angles between \(\mathbf{v}\) and the positive \(x\) -axis, the positive \(y\) -axis, and the positive \(z\) -axis, respectively (see figure). a. Prove that \(\cos ^{2} \alpha+\cos ^{2} \beta+\cos ^{2} \gamma=1\) b. Find a vector that makes a \(45^{\circ}\) angle with \(\mathbf{i}\) and \(\mathbf{j}\). What angle does it make with \(\mathbf{k} ?\) c. Find a vector that makes a \(60^{\circ}\) angle with i and \(\mathbf{j}\). What angle does it make with k? d.
