(a) Three honey bees were found flying along the vectors $\vec{a} = 2\hat{i} - 3\hat{j} + \hat{k}$, $\vec{b} = 4\hat{j} - 2\hat{k}$ and $\vec{c} = 3\hat{i} + 2\hat{k}$ respectively. Find the value of $\lambda$ such that the path for $\vec{a} + \lambda \vec{b}$ is perpendicular to $\vec{c}$. OR (b) If $A, B$ and $C$ be three non-collinear points such that $\vec{AB} = \hat{i} + 2\hat{j} - \hat{k}$ and $\vec{AC} = 2\hat{i} - 3\hat{j}$, then find the area of $\Delta ABC$.
