Three lines
L1:r=λi^, λR,
L2:r=k^+μj^, μRand
L3: r=i^+j^+νk^, νR
are given. For which point(s)QandL2can we find a pointPonL1and a pointRonL3so thatP, QandRare collinear?

Options:(select one or more)

Answer:
C, D
Solution:

As given
L1r=λi, λR
L2r=k+μj, μR
andL3r=i+j+νk, νR
Let pointPλ, 0, 0, Q0, μ, 1andR1, 1, ν
andPQ=-λi^+μj^+k^, PR=1-λi^+j^+νk^
asP, QandRare co-linear
PQis parallel toPR
-λ1-λ=μ1=1ν
λ=μμ-1andν=1μ
henceμ0μ1
Q0, 0, 1andQ0, 1, 1
Qk^ & Qj^+k^
