Two lines x-3 1 = y+1 3 = z-6 -1 and x+5 7 = y-2 -6 = z-3 4 intersect at the point R . Then reflection of R in the x y -plane has co-ordinates
Options
- A(2,-4,-7)
- B(2,-4,7)
- C(-2,4,7)
- D(2,4,7)
Correct answer
A. (2,-4,-7)
Step-by-step solution
Let x-3 1 = y+1 3 = z-6 -1 = x=3+ , y=3 -1, z =- +6 Let x+5 7 = y-2 -6 = z-3 4 = x=7 -5, y=-6 +2, z =4 +3 Both the given lines intersect each other. aligned & So, +3=7 -5 & 7 - =8...(i) aligned Also, 3 -1=-6 +2 6 +3 =3 ...(ii) From (i) and (ii), we get aligned & =1, =-1 & i.e., x=2, y=-4, z =7 aligned Co-ordinates of the intersection of the given lines are R (2,-4,7) Hence, reflection of R in the x y -plane is (2,-4,-7) .
