Let P Q R be a triangle such that P Q =-2 i - j +2 k and PR =a i +b...
Let be a triangle such that and . Let S be the point on QR, which is equidistant from the lines PQ and PR. If and , then the value of is
Correct answer
0
Step-by-step solution
Given: , (), ,
From : ...(1)
Since S is on QR equidistant from lines PQ and PR, PS is the angle bisector. So:
Similarly:
...(2)
From (1) and (2):
(NTA Answer)
However, and are not parallel, so Q, S, R are not collinear. Also , which is impossible. Hence no such triangle exists.
So, this should be a bonus question.
