Solution

$\vec{d}=\vec{c} \times \vec{a}=(\vec{a} \times \vec{b}) \times \vec{a}$
$\overrightarrow{\mathrm{d}}=-\overrightarrow{\mathrm{a}} \times(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{a}} \times \overrightarrow{\mathrm{b}})=-[(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{a}} \cdot \overrightarrow{\mathrm{b}}) \overrightarrow{\mathrm{a}}-(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{a}} \cdot \overrightarrow{\mathrm{a}}) \overrightarrow{\mathrm{b}}]$
$\overrightarrow{\mathrm{d}}=-[(-1-1-6) \overrightarrow{\mathrm{a}}-(1+1+4) \overrightarrow{\mathrm{b}}]$
$\overrightarrow{\mathrm{d}}=8 \overrightarrow{\mathrm{a}}+6 \overrightarrow{\mathrm{~b}}$
Now $(\vec{a}-\vec{b}) \cdot \vec{d}=(\vec{a}-\vec{b}) \cdot(8 \vec{a}+6 \vec{b})$
$=8 \vec{a} \cdot \vec{a}+6 \vec{a} \cdot \vec{b}-8 \vec{b} \cdot \vec{a}-6 \vec{b} \cdot \vec{b}=8|\vec{a}|^{2}-2 \vec{a} \cdot \vec{b}-6|\vec{b}|^{2}$
$=8(1+1+4)-2(-1-1-6)-6(1+1+9)$
$=48+16-66=-2$ Answer(3)
