Given lines:
→r=3^i+2^j−4^k+λ(^i+2^j+2^k) and
→r=5^i−2^j+μ(3^i+2^j+6^k)
We know, the angle between lines
→r=→a1+λ→b1 and →r=→a2+μ→b2 is:
cosθ=∣∣
∣∣→b1.→b2∣∣→b1∣∣∣∣→b2∣∣∣∣
∣∣
Here, →b1=^i+2^j+2^k and →b2=3^i+2^j+6^k,
∴cosθ=∣∣
∣∣(^i+2^j+2^k).(3^i+2^j+6^k)∣∣^i+2^j+2^k∣∣∣∣3^i+2^j+6^k∣∣∣∣
∣∣
⇒cosθ=∣∣
∣∣3+4+12√12+22+22√32+22+62∣∣
∣∣
⇒cosθ=∣∣∣19√9√49∣∣∣
⇒cosθ=193×7=1921
⇒θ=cos−1(1921)
Hence,angle between given pair of lines is
cos−1(1921)
