Step-by-step solution
Plotting the rough graph of the given data we have, Let M be the mid-point of P Q ∴   M = 3 λ + 6 , 2 λ + 1 , 3 λ + 2 Now, P M → = 3 λ + 5 i ^ + 2 λ - 1 j ^ + 3 λ - 1 k ^ ∵   P M → ⊥ 3 i ^ + 2 j ^ + 3 k ^ ∴   3 3 λ + 5 + 2 2 λ - 1 + 3 3 λ - 1 = 0 λ = - 5 11 ∴   M 51 11 , 1 11 , 7 11 Since R is mid-point of P M So by using midpoint formula in P   &   M we get, R = 62 22 , 23 22 , 40 22 , now
