Question 23

Let a vector $$\vec{a} = \sqrt{2}\,\hat{i} - \hat{j} + \lambda \hat{k}, \quad \lambda > 0,$$ make an obtuse angle with the vector $$\vec{b} = -\lambda^{2}\hat{i} + 4\sqrt{2}\,\hat{j} + 4\sqrt{2}\,\hat{k}$$ and an angle $$\theta, \dfrac{\pi}{6} < \theta < \dfrac{\pi}{2}$$, with the positive z-axis. If the set of all possible values of $$\lambda$$ is $$( \alpha, \beta) - \{\gamma\}$$, then $$\alpha + \beta + \gamma$$ is equal to __________.
