Distance Between two points $(a,b,c)$ and $(x,y,z)$ is given by
$\sqrt { \left( a-x \right) ^{ 2 }+\left( b-y \right) ^{ 2 }+\left( c-z \right) ^{ 2 } } $
Given $(-1,1,3)$, $(0,5,6)$
Distance $=\sqrt { \left( -1-0 \right) ^{ 2 }+\left( 1-6 \right) ^{ 2 }+\left( 3-6 \right) ^{ 2 } } $
                $=\sqrt { 26 } $

Distance Between two position vectors $a\hat i+b\hat j+c\hat k$ and $x\hat i+y\hat j+z\hat k$ is given by
$\sqrt { \left( a-x \right) ^{ 2 }+\left( b-y \right) ^{ 2 }+\left( c-z \right) ^{ 2 } } $
Given $-2\hat i+3\hat j+5\hat k$, $7\hat i-\hat k$
Distance $=\sqrt { \left( -2-7 \right) ^{ 2 }+\left( 3-0 \right) ^{ 2 }+\left( 5+1 \right) ^{ 2 } } $
                $=\sqrt { 126 } $
                $=3\sqrt { 14 } $

Distance Between two position vectors $a\hat i+b\hat j+c\hat k$ and $x\hat i+y\hat j+z\hat k$ is given by
$\sqrt { \left( a-x \right) ^{ 2 }+\left( b-y \right) ^{ 2 }+\left( c-z \right) ^{ 2 } } $
Given $4\hat i+3\hat j-6\hat k$, $-2\hat i+\hat j-\hat k$
Distance $=\sqrt { \left( 4+2 \right) ^{ 2 }+\left( 3-1 \right) ^{ 2 }+\left( -6+1 \right) ^{ 2 } } $
                $=\sqrt { 65 } $

Let $A=(3,-5,1), B = (-1,0,8)$ and $C=(7,-10,-6)$

The coordinates of the vertices of the triangle are given by $(1,2,-3) , (b,0,1), (-1,1,-4)$

Accordingly the coordinates of the centroid of this triangle will be given by 

($ \dfrac{b}{3}, 1 , -2 $)

Hence, $ \dfrac{b}{3} $ $= 1$ Or, $b= 3$

and $a = -2$

So $a- b = -5$

Let the points $A(2,5,1) B(1,4,-3)$ and $C(-2,7,-3)$
Now using distance formula in $3D$, we have
$AB {=}$$\sqrt{18}$, $BC {=}$$\sqrt{18}$, and $AC {=}$$\sqrt{36}$
Since, ${AB}^{2}+{BC}^{2}$${=}$${AC}^{2}$
Hence, it is right angle triangle and as we know that the circumcentre of right angled triangle is at the midpoint of hypotenuse i.e $AC$.
Therefore by using section formula (1:1), circumcentre ${=}(0,6,-1)$

The $4$ points are as given.
We calculate their individual distance from the origin.
$OP =$ $ {({5}^{2} + {6}^{2})}^{0.5} $ = $ {(61)}^{0.5} $
$OQ =$ $ {({1}^{2} + {4}^{2} + {7}^{2} )}^{0.5} $ = $ {(66)}^{0.5} $
$OR =$ $ {({2}^{2} + {3}^{2} + {7}^{2} )}^{0.5} $ = $ {(62)}^{0.5} $
$OS =$ $ {({3}^{2} + {5}^{2} + {16}^{2} )}^{0.5} $= $ {(290)}^{0.5} $
Hence, $P$ is the nearest to the origin.

Keeping the above points as vertices and using the distance formula, 
$D=\sqrt{(x _{2}-x _{1})^{2}+(y _{2}-y _{1})^{2}+(z _{2}-z _{1})^{2}}$
We get that the sides of the parallelogram formed by the above lines are equal and all the sides are of $7$ units.
Hence the parallelogram will be either a rhombus or a square. For the parallelogram to be square, all the adjacent sides of the parallelogram should make an angle of $\dfrac{\pi}{2}$.
Consider the vector equation of $AB$ as $(5-(-1))i'+(-1-(-3))j'+(1-4)k'$
$6i'+2j'-3k'$
Consider the vector equation of $BC$ as $(7-5)i'+(-4-(-1))j'+(7-1)k'$
$2i'-3j'+6k'$
Taking dot product, we get $6(2)+2(-3)-3(6)$
$=12-6-18$
$=-12$
Thus the parallelogram is a rhombus.

Given that,

Dimensions of the hall x $=24cm\times 8cm\times 6cm$

Now Leght of the longest pole which can be accommodated in the hall x $=\sqrt{{{24}^{2}}+{{8}^{2}}+{{6}^{2}}}=26cm$
