Let ( , , ) be the foot of perpendicular from the point (1,2,3) on the line x+35= y-12= z+43. Then 19( + + ) is equal to :
- 99
- 102
- 101
- 100
Answer
(3) 101
Solution
[figure]
General point of the line: M(5k-3, 2k+1, 3k-4)
d.r. of PM: 5k-4, 2k-1, 3k-7
PM line: 5(5k-4)+2(2k-1)+3(3k-7)=0
38k=43 k= 4338
+ + =10k-6= 21519-6= 10119
19( + + )=101
Answer: (3)
