Need Solution for R.D.Sharma Maths Class 12 Chapter 27 Straight Line in Space  Exercise 27.2 Question 19 Maths Textbook Solution.

Answers (1)

Answer: The two lines are perpendicular to each other(shown)

Given: show that the lines \frac{x-5}{7}=\frac{y+2}{-5}=\frac{z}{1} and \frac{x}{1}=\frac{y}{2}=\frac{3}{2}are perpendicular to each other

Hint: for showing perpendicular \vec{b}.\vec{c}=0

Solution:

                Direction ratio_{1}=7\hat{i}-5\hat{j}+\hat{k}

                Direction ratio_{2}=\hat{i}-2\hat{j}+3\hat{k}

                \vec{b}.\vec{c}=0

                \begin{aligned} &\Rightarrow(7 \hat{i}-5 \hat{j}+\hat{k}) \cdot(\hat{i}+2 \hat{j}+3 \hat{k}) \\ &\Rightarrow 7-10+3=0 \end{aligned}

Therefore the two lines are perpendicular
