Straight Line in Space exercise 27.1 question 5

Answer:
$\begin{aligned} &\vec{r}=(2 \hat{\imath}-3 \hat{\jmath}+4 \hat{k})+\lambda(\hat{\imath}-13 \hat{\jmath}+17 \hat{k}) \\ &\frac{x-2}{1}=\frac{y+3}{13}=\frac{z-4}{17} \end{aligned}$
Hint: Position vector of the mid point
Given : ABCD is a Parallelogram
Solution:
We know that the position vector of the mid-point of $\begin{aligned} &\vec{a} \end{aligned}$ and is $\begin{aligned} &\vec{b} \end{aligned}$ is $\frac{\vec{a}+\vec{b}}{2}$
Let the position vector of D be $x\hat{i}+y\hat{j}+z\hat{k}$
Position vector of mid-point of A and C = Position vector of mid-point of B and D
$\begin{aligned} &\frac{(4 \hat{\mathrm{i}}+5 \hat{\mathbf{j}}-10 \hat{\mathrm{k}})+(-\hat{\mathrm{i}}+2 \hat{\mathrm{j}}+\hat{\mathrm{k}})}{2}=\frac{(2 \hat{\mathrm{i}}-3 \hat{\mathrm{j}}+4 \hat{\mathrm{k}})+(x\hat{\mathrm{i}}+ y\hat{\mathbf{j}}+z\hat{\mathrm{k}})}{2} \\ &\Rightarrow \frac{3}{2} \hat{\mathrm{i}}+\frac{7}{2} \hat{\mathrm{j}}-\frac{9}{2} \hat{\mathrm{k}}=\left(\frac{\mathrm{x}+2}{2}\right) \hat{\mathrm{i}}+\left(\frac{-3+\mathrm{y}}{2}\right) \hat{\mathrm{j}}+\left(\frac{4+\mathrm{z}}{2}\right) \hat{\mathrm{k}} \end{aligned}$
Comparing the coefficients of $\hat{i},\hat{j}$ & $\hat{k}$ we get
$\begin{aligned} &\left(\frac{x+2}{2}\right)=\frac{3}{2} \\ &\Rightarrow x=1 \\ &\frac{-3+y}{2}=\frac{7}{2} \\ &\Rightarrow y=10 \\ &\frac{4+z}{2}=-\frac{9}{2} \\ &\Rightarrow z=-13 \end{aligned}$
Position vector of point $D=\hat{i}+10\hat{j}-13\hat{k}$ . The vector equation of line BD passing through the points with position vectors
$\overrightarrow{\mathrm{a}}(\mathrm{B}) and \overrightarrow{\mathrm{b}}(\mathrm{D})$
$\overrightarrow{\mathrm{r}}=\overrightarrow{\mathrm{a}}+\lambda(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{b}}-\overrightarrow{\mathrm{a}})$
Here,
$\begin{aligned} &\overrightarrow{\mathrm{a}}=2 \hat{\mathrm{i}}-3 \hat{\mathbf{j}}+4 \hat{\mathrm{k}} \\ &\overrightarrow{\mathrm{b}}=\hat{\mathrm{i}}+10 \hat{\mathrm{j}}-13 \hat{\mathrm{k}} \end{aligned}$
Vector equation of the required line is
$\begin{aligned} &\overrightarrow{\mathrm{r}}=(2 \hat{\mathrm{i}}-3 \hat{\mathbf{j}}+4 \hat{\mathrm{k}})+\lambda\{(\hat{\mathrm{i}}+10 \hat{\mathrm{j}}-13 \hat{\mathrm{k}})-(2 \hat{\mathrm{i}}-3 \hat{\mathbf{j}}+4 \hat{\mathrm{k}})\} \\ &\Rightarrow \overrightarrow{\mathrm{r}}=(2 \hat{\mathrm{i}}-3 \hat{\mathrm{j}}+4 \hat{\mathrm{k}})+\lambda(-\hat{\mathrm{i}}+13 \hat{\mathbf{j}}-17 \hat{\mathrm{k}}) \end{aligned}$ ………….. (1)
Here, $\lambda$ is a parameter.
Reducing (1) to Cartesian form, we get
$\begin{aligned} &x \hat{\mathbf{i}}+y \hat{\mathrm{j}}+\mathrm{z} \hat{\mathbf{k}}=(2 \hat{\mathrm{i}}-3 \hat{\mathbf{j}}+4 \hat{\mathrm{k}})+\lambda(-\hat{\mathrm{i}}+13 \hat{\mathrm{j}}-17 \hat{\mathrm{k}})[\text { Putting } \overrightarrow{\mathrm{r}}=\mathrm{x} \hat{\mathrm{i}}+\mathrm{y} \hat{\mathrm{j}}+\mathrm{z} \hat{\mathrm{k}} \text { in }(1)] \\ &\Rightarrow \mathrm{x} \hat{\mathbf{i}}+\mathrm{y} \hat{\mathrm{j}}+\mathrm{z} \hat{\mathrm{k}}=(2-\lambda) \hat{\mathrm{i}}+(-3+13 \lambda) \hat{\mathrm{j}}+(4-17 \lambda) \hat{\mathrm{k}} \end{aligned}$
Comparing the coefficients of $\hat{i},\hat{j}$ & $\hat{k}$ we get
$\begin{aligned} &x=2-\lambda, y=-3+13 \lambda, \mathrm{z}=4-17 \lambda \\ &\Rightarrow \frac{x-2}{-1}=\lambda, \frac{y+3}{13}=\lambda, \frac{z-4}{-17}=\lambda \\ &\Rightarrow \frac{x-2}{-1}=\frac{y+3}{13}=\frac{z-4}{-17}=\lambda \\ &\Rightarrow \frac{x-2}{1}=\frac{y+3}{-13}=\frac{z-4}{17}=-\lambda \end{aligned}$
Hence, the Cartesian form of (1) is
$\frac{x-2}{1}=\frac{y+3}{-13}=\frac{z-4}{17}$

Answer :-
$\left ( x,y,z \right )=\left ( -2,-1,3 \right ) or \left ( 4,3,7 \right )$
Hint :-
Distance Formula : $\sqrt{\left(x_{1-} x_{2}\right)^{2}+\left(y_{1-} y_{2}\right)^{2}+\left(z_{1-} z_{2}\right)^{2}}$
Given :-
Point are P (1 , 3 , 3)
And line are $\frac{x+2}{3}=\frac{y+1}{2}=\frac{z-3}{2}$
Solution :-
$\frac{x+2}{3}=\frac{y+1}{2}=\frac{z-3}{2}$ -------- (1)
Let the point be $x_{1},y_{1},z_{1}$
$\therefore \frac{x+2}{3}=\frac{y+1}{2}=\frac{z-3}{2}=\lambda \left ( say \right )$
$x_{1}=3\lambda -2$ , $y_{1}=2\lambda -1$ , $z_{1}=2\lambda +3$
The distance of $\left ( x_{1},y_{1},z_{1} \right )$ and P (1 , 3 , 3) = 5
$\sqrt{(3 \lambda-2-1)^{2}+(2 \lambda-1-3)^{2}+(2 \lambda+3-3)^{2}}=5$
Squaring both sides
$\begin{aligned} &(3 \lambda-3)^{2}+(2 \lambda-4)^{2}+(2 \lambda)^{2}=25 \\ &\Rightarrow 9 \lambda^{2}-18 \lambda+9+4 \lambda^{2}-16 \lambda+16+4 \lambda^{2}=25 \\ &\Rightarrow 17 \lambda^{2}-34 \lambda=0 \\ &\Rightarrow 17 \lambda(\lambda-2)=0 \\ &\lambda=0, \lambda=2 \end{aligned}$
∴ when $\lambda =0$ ; $x=-2$ , $y=-1$ , $z=3$
& when $\lambda =2$ ; $x=4$ , $y=3$ , $z=7$
$\left ( x,y,z \right )=\left ( -2,-1,3 \right ) or \left ( 4,3,7 \right )$

$\begin{aligned} &\frac{-x-2}{1}=\frac{y+3}{7}=\frac{2z-6}{3} \\ \end{aligned}$
Solution :-
The P.V of the point (1 , 2 , 3) will be $\overrightarrow{r}=\hat{i}+2\hat{j}+3\hat{k}$
The line $\begin{aligned} &\frac{-x-2}{1}=\frac{y+3}{7}=\frac{2z-6}{3} \\ \end{aligned}$ can be written as $\begin{aligned} &\frac{x+2}{-1}=\frac{y+3}{7}=\frac{z-3}{\frac{3}{2}} \\ \end{aligned}$ ---------- (1)
So the direction ratios can be $-1,7,\frac{3}{2} or -2,14,3$ $PV=\widehat{-2}i+14\hat{j}+3\hat{k}$
Cartesian equation of the line passing through ( 1 , 2 , 3) and parallel to (1)
$\begin{aligned} &\frac{x-1}{-2}=\frac{y-2}{14}=\frac{z-3}{3} \\ \end{aligned}$
Vector Equation
$\overrightarrow{r}=\overrightarrow{a}+\lambda \overrightarrow{b}$
$=\begin{aligned} &(\hat{\imath}+2 \hat{\jmath}+3 \hat{k})+\lambda(\widehat{-2} \imath+14 \hat{\jmath}+3 \hat{k}) \end{aligned}$

Straight Line in Space exercise 27.1 question 17

Answer :-
$\frac{x+\frac{1}{3}}{2}=\frac{y-\frac{1}{3}}{1}=\frac{z-1}{-6}$ …cartesian equation of line
$\left(-\frac{1}{3} \hat{\imath}+\frac{1}{3} \hat{\jmath}+\hat{k}\right)+\lambda(2 \hat{\imath}+\hat{\jmath}-\widehat{6 k})$ …vector equation of line
$\left(\frac{-1}{3}, \frac{1}{3}, 1\right)$ …the fixed point through which the line passes ;
$(2,1,-6)$ ….direction ratios of the line
Hint :-
$\overrightarrow{r}=\overrightarrow{a}+\lambda \overrightarrow{b}$
Given :-
$3x+1=6y-2=1-z$
Solution :-
The given line can be written as $\frac{x+\frac{1}{3}}{\frac{1}{3}}=\frac{y-\frac{2}{6}}{\frac{1}{6}}=\frac{z-1}{-1}$
$\Rightarrow \frac{x+\frac{1}{3}}{2}=\frac{y-\frac{1}{3}}{1}=\frac{z-1}{-6}$
Thus the line passes through the point $\left(\frac{-1}{3}, \frac{1}{3}, 1\right)$
vector equation of the point will be $\left(\overrightarrow{a}=-\frac{1}{3} \hat{\imath}+\frac{1}{3} \hat{\jmath}+\hat{k}\right)$
The direction ratios are proportional to $(2,1,-6)$
and its vector equation will be $\overrightarrow{b}=2 \hat{\imath}+\hat{\jmath}-\widehat{6 k}$
Vector Equation of line
$\overrightarrow{r}=\overrightarrow{a}+\lambda \overrightarrow{b}$
$=\left(-\frac{1}{3} \hat{\imath}+\frac{1}{3} \hat{\jmath}+\hat{k}\right)+\lambda(2 \hat{\imath}+\hat{\jmath}-\widehat{6 k})$

Straight Line in Space exercise 27.1 question 18

Answer :-
$(\hat{\imath}+2 \hat{\jmath}-\hat{k})+\lambda(7 \hat{\imath}-5 \hat{\jmath}+\hat{k})$
Hint :-
$\overrightarrow{r}=\overrightarrow{a}+\lambda \overrightarrow{b}$
Given :-
$A(1,2,-1) \& 5 x-25=14-7 y=35 z$
Solution :-
$5 x-25=14-7 y=35 z \\ \Rightarrow \frac{x-5}{\frac{1}{5}}=\frac{y-2}{\frac{-1}{7}}=\frac{z}{\frac{1}{35}} \\ \Rightarrow \frac{x-5}{7}=\frac{y-2}{-5}=\frac{z}{1}$ -------------- (1)
Direction ratios of (1) will be ( 7 , -5 , 1 )
hence, $\vec{b}=7 \hat{\imath}-5 \hat{\jmath}+\hat{k}$
P.V of $A(1,2,-1)=>\vec{a}=\hat{\imath}+2 \hat{\jmath}-\hat{k} \\$
$\vec{r}=\vec{a}+\lambda \vec{b} \\ \quad$
$=(\hat{\imath}+2 \hat{\jmath}-\hat{k})+\lambda(7 \hat{\imath}-5 \hat{\jmath}+\hat{k})$
