Let $\overrightarrow {a}=a_1\hat i+a_2 \hat j+a_3 \hat k$ Assertion (A): The identify $|\overrightarrow a \times \hat i |^2+|\overrightarrow a \times \hat j|^2+|\overrightarrow a \times \hat k| ^2=2 | \overrightarrow a |^2$ holds for $\overrightarrow {a}$. Reason (R): $\overrightarrow {a} \times \hat i =a_3 \hat j- a_2 \hat k, \overrightarrow a \times \hat j= a_1 \hat k- a_3 \hat i, \overrightarrow a \times \hat k=a_2 \hat i- a_1 \hat j$ Which of the following is correct ?

Question

(a) Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct reason for (A)

(b) Both (A) and (R) are true but (R) is not the correct reason for (A)

(c) (A) is true, (R) is false

(d) (A) is false, (R) is true
