It is given that, in a ΔPQR 
   PQ=c,QR=a, RP=b 
   a+b+c=0
                        |a|2+a.b+a.c=0……. (i)
 and   a.b+|b|2+c.b=0   …….(ii)
and also given that  |a|=3,|b|=4
and   a.ca.bc.ac.b=|a||a|+|b|=37
         7a.ca.b=3c.ac.b
from Eqs. (i) and (ii) on putting the values of a .c and c . b, we get
  
        79(a.b)(a.b)=39(a.b)+16+(a.b)
        792(a.b)=3×7
        a.b=6
              |a×b|2=|a||b|2(a.b)2
 =14436                       =108
