Direction ratios of a vector parallel to line \(\frac{x-1}{2}=-y=\frac{2 z+1}{6}\) are :
Q1 FREE PREVIEW
Direction ratios of a vector parallel to line \(\frac{x-1}{2}=-y=\frac{2 z+1}{6}\) are :
✓ Correct answer: d)
\(2,-1,3\)
Explanation
Let \(\frac{x-1}{2}=-y=\frac{2 z+1}{6}=\lambda\)
\(x=1+2 \lambda \Rightarrow \frac{d x}{d \lambda}=2\)
\(-y=\lambda \Rightarrow y=-\lambda\)
\(\Rightarrow \frac{d y}{d \lambda}=-1\)
\(\frac{2 z+1}{6}=\lambda \Rightarrow 2 z=6 \lambda-1\)
\(\Rightarrow z=3 \lambda-\frac{1}{2} \Rightarrow \frac{d z}{d \lambda}=3\)
