Show that the lines and
are perpendicular to each other.
Given –
&
To prove – The lines are perpendicular to each other
Direction ratios of L1 = (2,-3,4)
Direction ratios of L2 = (2,4,2)
Tip – If (a,b,c) be the direction ratios of the first line and (a’,b’,c’) be that of the second, then the angle between these pair of lines is given by
The angle between the lines
Hence, the lines are perpendicular to each other.
