The correct option is
A x−5−1=y−32=z−23We have to find the equation of the line passing through the point
(5,3,2) and perpendicular to the lines
x−21=y−3−1=z−41 and
x−12=y−11=z+10.
Consider x−21=y−3−1=z−41
Thus the directional ratios are (1,−1,1).
Now consider x−12=y−11=z+10
The directional ratios are (2,1,0).
To find the vector which is perpendicular to the given lines we need to find the cross product of (1,−1,1) and (2,1,0)
∣∣
∣∣ijk1−11210∣∣
∣∣=i(0−1)−j(0−2)+k(1+2)=−i+2j+3k=li+mj+nk(say)
Thus the equation of the required line is given by x−al=y−bm=z−cn where (a,b,c)=(5,3,2) and (l,m,n)=(−1,2,3)
x−5−1=y−32=z−23 is the required equation of the line.
