Mathematics Question from JEE Main 2026 · 22 January, Shift 1

Let AB=2i^+4j^5k^\overrightarrow{AB} = 2\hat{i} + 4\hat{j} - 5\hat{k} and AD=i^+2j^+λk^\overrightarrow{AD} = \hat{i} + 2\hat{j} + \lambda \hat{k}, λR\lambda \in \mathbb{R}. Let the projection of the vector v=i^+j^+k^\vec{v} = \hat{i} + \hat{j} + \hat{k} on the diagonal AC\overrightarrow{AC} of the parallelogram ABCDABCD be of length one unit. If α,β\alpha, \beta, where α>β\alpha > \beta, be the roots of the equation λ2x26λx+5=0\lambda^2 x^2 - 6\lambda x + 5 = 0, then 2αβ2\alpha - \beta is equal to
