The diagram shows a pyramid OABCD in which the vertical edge OD is 3 units in length. The point E is the centre of the horizontal rectangular base OABC. The sides OA and AB have lengths of 6 units and 4 units respectively. The unit vectors i, j and k are parallel to \(\overrightarrow{OA}\), \(\overrightarrow{OC}\) and \(\overrightarrow{OD}\) respectively.

  1. Express each of the vectors \(\overrightarrow{DB}\) and \(\overrightarrow{DE}\) in terms of i, j and k.
  2. Use a scalar product to find angle BDE.
