Problem If a \mathbf{a} a , b \mathbf{b} b , c \mathbf{c} c are three non-zero vectors, then which of the following statement (s) is/are true?
(1) a × ( b × c ) \mathbf{a} \times (\mathbf{b} \times \mathbf{c}) a × ( b × c ) , b × ( c × a ) \mathbf{b} \times (\mathbf{c} \times \mathbf{a}) b × ( c × a ) , c × ( a × b ) \mathbf{c} \times (\mathbf{a} \times \mathbf{b}) c × ( a × b ) form a right handed system
(2) c ⋅ ( a × b ) × c \mathbf{c} \cdot (\mathbf{a} \times \mathbf{b}) \times \mathbf{c} c ⋅ ( a × b ) × c , a × b \mathbf{a} \times \mathbf{b} a × b form a right handed system
(3) a ⋅ b + b ⋅ c + c ⋅ a < 0 \mathbf{a} \cdot \mathbf{b} + \mathbf{b} \cdot \mathbf{c} + \mathbf{c} \cdot \mathbf{a} < 0 a ⋅ b + b ⋅ c + c ⋅ a < 0 , if a + b + c = 0 \mathbf{a} + \mathbf{b} + \mathbf{c} = \mathbf{0} a + b + c = 0
(4) ( a × b ) ⋅ ( b × c ) ( b × c ) ⋅ ( a × c ) = − 1 \frac{(\mathbf{a} \times \mathbf{b}) \cdot (\mathbf{b} \times \mathbf{c})}{(\mathbf{b} \times \mathbf{c}) \cdot (\mathbf{a} \times \mathbf{c})} = -1 ( b × c ) ⋅ ( a × c ) ( a × b ) ⋅ ( b × c ) = − 1 , if a + b + c = 0 \mathbf{a} + \mathbf{b} + \mathbf{c} = \mathbf{0} a + b + c = 0
