Problem

If a\mathbf{a} , b\mathbf{b} , c\mathbf{c} are three non-zero vectors, then which of the following statement (s) is/are true? a. a×(b×c)\mathbf{a} \times (\mathbf{b} \times \mathbf{c}) , b×(c×a)\mathbf{b} \times (\mathbf{c} \times \mathbf{a}) , c×(a×b)\mathbf{c} \times (\mathbf{a} \times \mathbf{b}) form a right handed system b. c⋅(a×b)×c\mathbf{c} \cdot (\mathbf{a} \times \mathbf{b}) \times \mathbf{c} , a×b\mathbf{a} \times \mathbf{b} form a right handed system c. a⋅b+b⋅c+c⋅a<0\mathbf{a} \cdot \mathbf{b} + \mathbf{b} \cdot \mathbf{c} + \mathbf{c} \cdot \mathbf{a} < 0 , if a+b+c=0\mathbf{a} + \mathbf{b} + \mathbf{c} = \mathbf{0} d. (a×b)⋅(b×c)(b×c)⋅(a×c)=−1\frac{(\mathbf{a} \times \mathbf{b}) \cdot (\mathbf{b} \times \mathbf{c})}{(\mathbf{b} \times \mathbf{c}) \cdot (\mathbf{a} \times \mathbf{c})} = -1 , if a+b+c=0\mathbf{a} + \mathbf{b} + \mathbf{c} = \mathbf{0}
