If the angle between the line x =fraction numerator straight y minus 1 over denominator 2 end fraction space equals space fraction numerator straight z minus 3 over denominator straight lambda end fraction and the plane x + 2y + 3z = 4 is cos-1 square root of 5 over 14 end root then λ equal

  • 2/3

  • 3/2

  • 2/5

  • 2/5


A.

2/3

fraction numerator straight x minus 0 over denominator 1 end fraction space equals space fraction numerator straight y minus 1 over denominator 2 end fraction space equals space fraction numerator straight z minus 3 over denominator straight lambda end fraction space... space left parenthesis 1 right parenthesis
x + 2y + 3z = 4 ....... (2)

Angle between the line and plane is
cos space left parenthesis 90 minus space straight theta right parenthesis space equals space fraction numerator straight a subscript 1 straight a subscript 2 space plus straight b subscript 1 straight b subscript 2 space plus space straight c subscript 1 straight c subscript 2 over denominator square root of straight a subscript 1 superscript 2 plus straight b subscript 1 superscript 2 plus straight c subscript 1 superscript 2 end root space square root of straight a subscript 2 superscript 2 plus straight b subscript 2 superscript 2 plus straight c subscript 2 superscript 2 end root end fraction
rightwards double arrow space sin space straight theta space equals space fraction numerator 1 space plus space 4 space plus space 3 straight lambda over denominator square root of 14 space straight x space square root of 5 space plus space straight lambda squared end root end fraction space equals space fraction numerator 5 space plus space 3 straight lambda over denominator square root of 14 space straight x space end root square root of 5 space plus space straight lambda squared end root end fraction space... space left parenthesis 3 right parenthesis

But given that angle between line and plane is

rightwards double arrow space sin space straight theta space equals space fraction numerator 3 over denominator square root of 14 end fraction
therefore space from space left parenthesis 3 right parenthesis
fraction numerator 3 over denominator square root of 14 end fraction space equals space fraction numerator space 5 space plus space 3 straight lambda over denominator square root of 14 space end root space straight x square root of space 5 space plus straight lambda squared end root end fraction
rightwards double arrow space 9 space left parenthesis 5 space plus space straight lambda squared right parenthesis space equals space 25 space plus space 9 straight lambda squared space plus space 30 space straight lambda
30 space straight lambda space equals space 20
straight lambda space equals space 2 divided by 3

Statement-1 : The point A(1, 0, 7) is the mirror image of the point B(1, 6, 3) in the line: straight x over 1 space equals space fraction numerator straight y minus 1 over denominator 2 end fraction space equals space fraction numerator straight z minus 2 over denominator 3 end fraction
Statement-2: The line:straight x over 1 space equals space fraction numerator straight y minus 1 over denominator 2 end fraction space equals space fraction numerator straight z minus 2 over denominator 3 end fraction  bisects the line segment joining A(1, 0, 7) and B(1, 6, 3).

  • Statement-1 is true, Statement-2 is true; Statement-2 is a correct explanation for Statement-1. 

  • Statement-1 is true, Statement-2 is true; Statement-2 is not a correct explanation for Statement-1. 

  • Statement-1 is true, Statement-2 is false.

  • Statement-1 is true, Statement-2 is false.
