    				| 1. | If `P(x,y,z)` is a point on the line segment joining `Q(2,2,4)` and `R(3,5,6)` such that projections of `vec(OP)` on the axes are `13/5,19/5,26/5` respectively, then `P` divides `QR` in the ratioA. `1:2`B. `3:2`C. `2:3`D. `3:1` | 
| Answer» Correct Answer - B The coordinates of `P` are `(13/5,19/5,26/5)` Suppose, `P` divides `QR` in the ratio `lamda:1`. Then the coordinates of `P` are `((3lamda+2)/(lamda+1),(5lamda+2)/(lamda+1),(6lamda+4)/(lamda+1))` `implies (3lamda+2)/(lamda+1)=13/5,(5lamda+2)/(lamda+1)=19/5,(6lamda+4)/(lamda+1)=26/5implieslamda=3/2` Hence required ratios is `3:2`. | |
