### Educational Content on Vector Operations

#### Problem 1
**Question:** What is \(\hat{z} \times (\hat{z} \times (\hat{z} \times (\hat{z} + \hat{x})))?\)

This problem involves calculating the cross product of unit vectors. Begin by evaluating the innermost expression and work outward, using the properties of cross products involving unit vectors.

#### Problem 2
**Question:** What is \((\hat{x} + \hat{y}) \times ((\hat{x} + \hat{y}) \times \hat{z})?\)

This requires expanding the cross product expression using vector product identities and the properties of unit vectors.

#### Problem 3
**Question:** Consider two vectors \(\vec{A}\) and \(\vec{B}\). Write \(|\vec{A} + \vec{B}|\) in terms of the length of \(\vec{A}\), the length of \(\vec{B}\), and the dot product of \(\vec{A}\) and \(\vec{B}\).

The magnitude of the sum of two vectors can be found using the formula:

\[
|\vec{A} + \vec{B}| = \sqrt{|\vec{A}|^2 + |\vec{B}|^2 + 2(\vec{A} \cdot \vec{B})}
\]

This demonstrates the relationship between vector magnitude and dot product concepts.

#### Note:
No graphs or diagrams are included in the problem set above.
