Problem

Let a⃗\vec{a} = 2î + ĵ − k^\hat{k} and b⃗\vec{b} = î + 2ĵ + k^\hat{k} be two vectors. Consider a vector c⃗\vec{c} = αa⃗\vec{a} + βb⃗\vec{b}, α, β ∈ ℝ. If the projection of c⃗\vec{c} on the vector (a⃗\vec{a} + b⃗\vec{b}) is 3√2, then the minimum value of (c⃗\vec{c} − (a⃗\vec{a} × b⃗\vec{b})) · c⃗\vec{c} equals _____.
