Find the foot of the perpendicular drawn from thepoint `2 hat i- hat j+5 hat k`to the line ` vec r=(11 hat i-2 hat j-8 hat k)+lambda(10 hat i-4 hat j-11 hat k)dot`Also find the length of the perpendicular.

Answer» Correct Answer - (0,5,1)
`xhat(i) +yhat(j) +zhat(k) =(11 +10lambda)hat(i) -(2+4lambda)hat(j) -(8+11lambda)hat(k)`
`hArr x=11 +10 lambda ,y=-(2 +4lambda)" and " z=-(8 +11lambda)`
`hArr (x-11)/(10) =(y+2)/(-4) =(z+8)/(-11)` are the equations of the given line.
