ANSWER:  3

GIVEN:  |\vec{b}|=1 \quad \&(\vec{a}+\vec{b}) \cdot(\vec{a}-\vec{b})=8

HINTS:Use the identity of  \left(a^{2}-b^{2}\right)

SOLUTION:

\begin{aligned} &(\vec{a}+\vec{b}) \cdot(\vec{a}-\vec{b})=8 \\ & \end{aligned}

\Rightarrow|\vec{a}|^{2}-|\vec{b}|^{2}=8\left[\because(a+b)(a-b)=a^{2}-b^{2}\right] \\

\Rightarrow|\vec{a}|^{2}-1=8 \quad\left[\because|\vec{b}|^{2}=1\right] \\

\Rightarrow|\vec{a}|^{2}=9 \\

\Rightarrow|\vec{a}|=3
