If the volume of a parallelepiped whose coterminous edges are represented by the vectors $-12i + \alpha k$,$3j - k$,and $2i + j - 15k$ is $546$,find the value of $\alpha$.

Let $\vec{a} = \hat{i} - 2\hat{j} + 3\hat{k}$,$\vec{b} = \hat{i} + \hat{j} + \hat{k}$ and $\vec{c}$ be a vector such that $\vec{a} \times \vec{c} = \vec{b}$ and $\vec{a} \cdot \vec{c} = 3$. If $\vec{c} = x\vec{a} + y\vec{b} + z(\vec{a} \times \vec{b})$,then the value of $x + y + z$ is:

The sum of the distinct real values of $\mu$,for which the vectors $\mu \hat{i} + \hat{j} + \hat{k}$,$\hat{i} + \mu \hat{j} + \hat{k}$,and $\hat{i} + \hat{j} + \mu \hat{k}$ are coplanar,is

If $a, b, c$ are non-coplanar vectors and $d = \lambda a + \mu b + \nu c$,then $\lambda = \dots$

If $2i + 3j$,$i + j + k$,and $\lambda i + 4j + 2k$ taken in an order are coterminous edges of a parallelepiped of volume $2$ cubic units,then the value of $\lambda$ is:

Statement $1$: The vectors $\vec{a}, \vec{b}$ and $\vec{c}$ lie in the same plane if and only if $\vec{a} \cdot (\vec{b} \times \vec{c}) = 0$.
Statement $2$: The vectors $\vec{u}$ and $\vec{v}$ are perpendicular if and only if $\vec{u} \cdot \vec{v} = 0$,where $\vec{u} \times \vec{v}$ is a vector perpendicular to the plane of $\vec{u}$ and $\vec{v}$.
