#### Find the angle between the lines whose direction cosines are given by the equations 3l + m + 5n = 0 and 6mn - 2nl + 5lm = 0



Sol:
Given lines are 3l + m + 5n = 0

m = - (3l + 5n) -----------(1)

and 6mn - 2nl + 5lm = 0 ----------(2)

Substitute m in equation (2) we obtain

#### what are the direction ratios of a line equally inclined to the axes? How many such lines are there ? please explain all the necessary steps in detail along with the formulas used and the diagram ?



If a line makes angles α,β,ɣ with the axes we have α = β = ɣ .
cos α = cos β = cos ɣ or l = m = n .
l2 + m2 + n2 = 1
l2 + l2...

#### 1) Reduce the equation of the plane 3x - 4y + z = 9 to the intercept form and hence find the intercepts made by the plane with the coordinate axes. 2) Write the equation of the plane whose intercepts on the coordinate axes are 2,-4,5 respectively.



Sol:1)
Equation of the plane 3x - 4y + z = 9  [ dividing 9 on both sides ]

⇒ (3x / 9) + (-4y / 9) +( z / 9) = 1

⇒ (x / 3) + (y / (-9 / 4)) +( z / 9) = 1

#### The statement is true or false , answer with explaination If two lines are perpendicular to a third line , then the direction ratios of the two lines are proportional.



True.

The direction ratios are proportional only if the two lines are on the same plane otherwise they are not proportional.
