JEE Advanced Mathematics Question (2024) — Solution

Question

Let R be such that the lines L _1: x+11 1 = y +21 2 = z +29 3 and L_2: x+16 3 = y+11 2 = z+4 intersect. Let R _1 be the point of intersection of L _1 and L _2. Let O =(0,0,0), and n denote a unit normal vector to the plane containing both the lines L _1 and L _2. Match each entry in List-I to the correct entry in List-II. The correct option is

Options
