Cauchy-Schwarz Inequality The definition \(\mathbf{u} \cdot \mathbf{v}=|\mathbf{u}||\mathbf{v}| \cos \theta\) implies that \(|\mathbf{u} \cdot \mathbf{v}| \leq|\mathbf{u}||\mathbf{v}|\) (because \(|\cos \theta| \leq 1\) ). This inequality, known as the Cauchy-Schwarz Inequality, holds in any number of dimensions and has many consequences. Geometric-arithmetic mean Use the vectors \(\mathbf{u}=\langle\sqrt{a}, \sqrt{b}\rangle\) and \(\mathbf{v}=\langle\sqrt{b}, \sqrt{a}\rangle\) to show that \(\sqrt{a b} \leq(a+b) / 2,\) where \(a \geq 0\) and \(b \geq 0\).
Use the formula in Exercise 79 to find the (least) distance between the given point \(Q\) and line \(\mathbf{r}\). $$Q(5,6,1) ; \mathbf{r}(t)=\langle 1+3 t, 3-4 t, t+1\rangle$$
Use the formula in Exercise 79 to find the (least) distance between the given point \(Q\) and line \(\mathbf{r}\). $$Q(6,6,7), \mathbf{r}(t)=\langle 3 t,-3 t, 4\rangle$$
Consider the curve \(\mathbf{r}(t)=(a \cos t+b \sin t) \mathbf{i}+(c \cos t+d \sin t) \mathbf{j}+(e \cos t+f \sin t) \mathbf{k}\) where \(a, b, c, d, e,\) and \(f\) are real numbers. It can be shown that this curve lies in a plane. Find a general expression for a nonzero vector orthogonal to the plane containing the curve. $$\begin{aligned}\mathbf{r}(t)=&(a \cos t+b \sin t) \mathbf{i}+(c \cos t+d \sin t) \mathbf{j} \\ &+(e \cos t+f \sin t) \mathbf{k},\end{aligned}$$ where \(\langle a, c, e\rangle \times\langle b, d, f\rangle \neq \mathbf{0}\).
Evaluate the following definite integrals. $$\int_{0}^{\ln 2}\left(e^{-t} \mathbf{i}+2 e^{2 t} \mathbf{j}-4 e^{t} \mathbf{k}\right) d t$$
