Provide Solution For R.D.Sharma Maths Class 12 Chapter 27 Straight Line in Space Exercise 27.4 Question 7 Maths Textbook Solution.
Answer - The answer of the given question is
Hint – By using two point formula).
Given – Point (5,4,-1) and equation of the line
Solution - Let PQ be the perpendicular drawn from P to given line whose endpoint/foot is Q point.
As we know positive vector is given by
:: position vector of point P is
Ad from a given line we get
On comparing both side we get,
Thus, Co-ordinates of Q i.e. General point of the given line.
Hence
Direction ratio of PQ is
And by comparing with given line equation, direction ratios of the given line are
( Hint – denominator terms of line equation).
= (2,9,5).
PQ is perpendicular at the given line. Therefore, By “ Conditions of Perpendicularity”.
; whereas a terms and b terms are direction ratio of lines which are perpendicular to each other.
:: Co-ordinates of Q.,
By putting the value of γ in Q co-ordinate equation, we get
:: Co-ordinates of Q i.e. foot of perpendicular
By putting the value of γ in Q
Now,
Distance between PQ
