∵ Vector eq. of the line joining two points with position vectors →a and →b is →r=→a+λ(→b−→a)
So, →r=^i+2^j+3^k+λ{(−3^i+4^j+3^k)−(^i+2^j+3^k)}i.e.,→r=^i+2^j+3^k+λ(−4^i+2^j)....(i)
Now the d.r.'s of line (i) are -4,2,0. Also the d.r.'s of z-axis are 0,0,1.
Since (-4)(0)+(2)(0)+(0)(1)=0 so, clearly line (i) is perpnedicular to the z-axis.
(By using a1a2+b1b2+c1c2=0, condition for perpendicular lines).
