NCERT Solutions for Class 12 Maths 3D Geometry Exercise 11.2 Ques No 1.

Show that the three lines with direction cosines (12/13, −3/13, −4/13); (4/13, 12/13, 3/13); (3/13, −4/13, 12/13); are mutually perpendicular.

NCERT Solutions:

Let the line L1 has direction cosines as l1 = 12/13, m1 = −3/13, n1 = −4/13.

Let the line L2 has direction cosines as l2 = 4/13, m2 = 12/13, n2 = 3/13.

Let the line L3 has direction cosines as l3 = 3/13, m3 = −4/13, n3 = 12/13.

Let the angle between the lines L1 and L2 is θ1. Then,

cos θ1 = |l1l2 + m1m2 + n1n2|

= |(12/13 x 4/13) + (−3/13 x 12/13) + (−4/13 x 3/13)|

= |48/169 − 36/169 −12/169|

= |(48 − 36 − 12)/169| = 0 ⇒ θ1 = 90

Thus, the angle between the lines L1 and L2 is 90o.

Let the angle between the lines L2 and L3 is θ2. Then,

cos θ2 = |l2l3 + m2m3 + n2n3

= |(4/13 x 3/13) + (12/13 x −4/13) + (3/13 x 12/13)|

= |12/169 − 48/169 + 36/169| = |(12 − 48 + 36)/169| = 0

⇒ θ2 = 90

Thus, the angle between the lines L2 and L3 is 90o.

Let the angle between the lines L1 and L3 is θ3. Then,

cos θ3 = |l1l3 + m1m3 + n1n3

= |(12/13 x 3/13) + (−3/13 x −4/13) + (−4/13 x 12/13)|

= |36/169 + 12/169 − 48/169| = |(36 + 12 − 48)/169| = 0

⇒ θ3 = 90

Thus, the angle between the lines L1 and L3 is 90o.

Therefore the given lines are mutually perpendicular.

Show that the line through the points (1, – 1, 2), (3, 4, – 2) is perpendicular to the line through the points (0, 3, 2) and (3, 5, 6).

NCERT Solutions:

Direction ratios of the line joining the points A(1, – 1, 2) and B(3, 4, – 2) are

a1 = (3 – 1) = 2, b1 = (4 + 1) = 5, c1 = (–2 – 2) = –4

Direction ratios of the line joining the points C(0, 3, 2) and D(3, 5, 6) are

a2 = (3 – 0) = 3, b2 = (5 – 3) = 2, c2 = (6 – 2) = 4.

Now, two lines with direction ratios a1, b1, c1 and a2, b2, c2 are perpendicular if

a1a2 + b1b2 + c1c2 = 0

Since a1a2 + b1b2 + c1c2 = (2 x 3) + (5 x 2) + (–4 x 4) = 6 + 10 – 16 = 0, then the given lines AB and CD are perpendicular.

Find the equation of the line which passes through the point (1, 2, 3) and is parallel to the vector 3i + 2j −2k.

NCERT Solutions:

Given that the line which passes through the point A(1, 2, 3). Then, a = i + 2j + 3k. And, the this line is parallel to the vector b = 3i + 2j −2k.

We know that the vector equation of the line passing through a and parallel to b is r = a + λb. where λ is any real number.

Thus, the required vector equation of the given line is r = (i + 2j + 3k) + λ(3i + 2j −2k).

NCERT Solutions for Class 12 Maths 3D Geometry Exercise 11.2 Ques No 5.

Find the equation of the line in vector and in Cartesian form that passes through the point with position vector 2ij + 4k and is in the direction i + 2jk.

NCERT Solutions:

Given that the line which passes through the point with position vector a = 2ij + 4k and is in the direction b = i + 2jk

We know that the vector equation of the line passing through a and parallel to b is r = a + λb. where λ is any real number.

Thus, the vector equation of the given line is r = (2ij + 4k) + λ(i + 2j − k).

Since r is the position vector of any point P(x, y, z), then r = xi + yj + zk.

Thus,

xi + yj + zk = (2ij + 4k) + λ(i + 2j − k)

xi + yj + zk = (2 + λ)i + (−1 + 2λ)j + (4 − λ)k

x = (2 + λ), y = (−1 + 2λ), z = (4 − λ)

Eliminating λ, we get the Cartesian equation of line as

NCERT Solutions for Class 12 Maths 3D Geometry Exercise 11.2 Ques No 7.

The cartesian equation of a line is . Write its vector form.

NCERT Solutions:

Comparing the given equation with the standard form 

We observe that x1 = 5, y1 = –4, z1 = 6; a = 3, b = 7, c = 2.

Thus, the required line passes through the point P(5, –4, 6) a = 5i – 4j + 6k and is parallel to the vector b = 3i + 7j +2k.

Let r be the position vector of any point on the line, then the vector equation of the line is given by

r = a + λb r = (5i – 4j + 6k) + λ(3i + 7j +2k).

NCERT Solutions for Class 12 Maths 3D Geometry Exercise 11.2 Ques No 8.

Find the vector and the Cartesian equations of the lines that passes through the origin and (5, – 2, 3).

NCERT Solutions:

Given that the line passes through the origin P(0, 0, 0) a = 0i + 0j + 0k and Q(5, – 2, 3) b = 5i – 2j + 3k.

Let r be the position vector of any point on the line, then the vector equation of the line is given by

r = a + λ(b – a)

⇒ r = (0i + 0j + 0k) + λ(5i – 2j + 3k – 0i – 0j – 0k)

⇒ r = 0 + λ(5i – 2j + 3k).

Now, put r = xi + yj + zk.

xi + yj + zk = λ(5i – 2j + 3k)

xi + yj + zk = (5λ)i + (−2λ)j + (3λ)k

x = (5λ), y = (−2λ), z = (3λ)

Eliminating λ, we get the Cartesian equation of line as

NCERT Solutions for Class 12 Maths 3D Geometry Exercise 11.2 Ques No 9.

Find the vector and the Cartesian equations of the line that passes through the points (3, – 2, – 5), (3, – 2, 6).

NCERT Solutions:

Given that the line passes through the origin A(3, – 2, – 5) a = 3i – 2j – 5k and B(3, – 2, 6) b = 3i – 2j + 6k.

Let r be the position vector of any point on the line, then the vector equation of the line is given by

r = a + λ(b – a)

⇒ r = (3i – 2j – 5k) + λ(3i – 2j + 6k – 3i + 2j + 5k)

⇒ r = (3i – 2j – 5k) + λ(0i + 0j + 11k)

⇒ r = (3i – 2j – 5k) + λ(11k)

Now, put r = xi + yj + zk.

xi + yj + zk = (3i – 2j – 5k) + λ(11k)

xi + yj + zk = (3 + 0λ)i + (−2 + 0λ)j + (– 5 + 11λ)k

x = (3 + 0λ), y = (−2 + 0λ), z = (– 5 + 11λ)

Eliminating λ, we get the Cartesian equation of line as
