23. Find the vector equation of the line joining (1, 2, 3) and (3,4,3) and show ha itis peapendicular tothe z-axis. |

Answer» vector a= (1 ,2, 3) & vector b= (-3 , 4 , 3) total vector is denoted by R, R=a+k(b-a)==>C vector a= 1i+2j+3k vector b= -3i+4j+3k put the values of vector a and vector b in equation C vector a=a vector b=b R=i+2j+3k+k(-3i+4j+3k-i-2j-3k) R=i+2j+3k+k(-4i+2j) R is a vector for a line passing through 2 points vector a and vector b can be given by, R=i+2j+3k+k(-4i+2j) now with the help of doth product, vector called as unit vector along with z-axis is denoted by k, direction ration is (0,0,1) and direction line (-4 2 0) if two lines perpendicular to each other then we know that, =0*-4+0*2+1*0 =0 so that it is perpendicular to axis Z. |
