A line with direction ratio 2 , 1 , 2 meets the lines x = y + 2 = z and x + 2 = 2 y = 2 z respectively at the point P and Q . if the length of the perpendicular from the point ( 1 , 2 , 12 ) to the line PQ is l , then l 2 is
Correct answer
65
Step-by-step solution
Let P t , t - 2 , t and Q 2 s - 2 , s , s DR ' s of PQ are 2 , 1 , 2 ⇒ 2 s - 2 - t 2 = s - t + 2 1 = s - t 2 ⇒ 2 s - 2 - t 2 = s - t + 2 1 ⇒ 2 s - 2 - t = 2 s - 2 t + 4 ⇒ t = 6 ⇒ s - t + 2 1 = s - t 2 ⇒ s - 6 + 2 1 = s - 6 2 ⇒ 2 s - 8 = s - 6 ⇒ s = 2 ⇒ P 6 , 4 , 6 and Q 2 , 2 , 2 PQ : x - 2 2 = y - 2 1 = z - 2 2 = λ ⇒ x = 2 λ + 2 , y = λ + 2 and z = 2 λ + 2 Let, F ( 2 λ + 2 , λ + 2 , 2 λ + 2 ) A 1 , 2 , 12 AF → · PQ → = 0 ⇒ 2 2 λ + 1 + 1 λ + 2 2 λ - 10 = 0 ⇒ 4 λ + 2 + λ + 4 λ - 20 = 0 ⇒ λ = 2 So F 6 , 4 , 6 and AF
