Let $\vec{F}$ be a force acting on a particle having position vector $\vec{r}$,and $\vec{\tau}$ be the torque of this force about the origin. Then:

The magnitude of torque on a particle of mass $1\,kg$ is $2.5\,Nm$ about the origin. If the force acting on it is $1\,N$,and the distance of the particle from the origin is $5\,m$,the angle between the force and the position vector is (in radians)

If $\vec{F}$ is the force acting on a particle having position vector $\vec{r}$ and $\vec{\tau}$ is the torque of this force about the origin,then

$A$ force $\vec{F} = 4\hat{i} - 5\hat{j} + 3\hat{k}$ is applied at a point with position vector $\vec{r_1} = \hat{i} + 2\hat{j} + 3\hat{k}$. The torque about the point with position vector $\vec{r_2} = 3\hat{i} - 2\hat{j} - 3\hat{k}$ is:
