Detailed Solution

|a|=1,|b|=4,ab=2

 c=(2a×b)3b or  c+3b=2a×b ab=2 |a||b|cosθ=2 or  cosθ=2|a||b|=24=12 or  θ=π3 |c+3b|2=|2a×b|2 or  |c|2+9|b|2+2c3b=4|a|2|b|2sin2θ or  |c|2+144+6bc=48 or  |c|2+96+6(bc)=0----i

 Now c=2a×b3b

|c|2=4|a|2|b|2sin2θ+9|b|2=192bc=48

 Again, putting the value of |c| in Eq. (i), we have 

 192+96+6|b||c|cosα=0 or  6×4×83cosα=288

cosα=2886×4×83=323=32α=5π6
