Relative to the origin \(O\), the points \(A, B\) and \(D\) have position vectors given by

\(\overrightarrow{OA} = \mathbf{i} + 2\mathbf{j} + \mathbf{k}, \quad \overrightarrow{OB} = 2\mathbf{i} + 5\mathbf{j} + 3\mathbf{k} \quad \text{and} \quad \overrightarrow{OD} = 3\mathbf{i} + 2\mathbf{k}.\)

A fourth point \(C\) is such that \(ABCD\) is a parallelogram.

(a) Find the position vector of \(C\) and verify that the parallelogram is not a rhombus. [5]

(b) Find angle \(BAD\), giving your answer in degrees. [3]

(c) Find the area of the parallelogram correct to 3 significant figures. [2]
