Answer:
a) x = 1 -2t
y = 1
z = 1 + 2t
b) [tex]h=\frac{7\sqrt{26} }{26}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
a) We need to find direction v of L
Let v = < a, b, c > ≠ 0
v ║ (Plane)
∴ v ⊥ (Normal(Plane))
∴ v ⊥ < 1, -1, 1 >
v ⊥ Direction(Line))
∴ v ⊥ < 1, 1, 1 >
∴ v ∝ < 1, -1, 1 > × < 1, 1, 1 >
Let v = < 1, -1, 1 > × < 1, 1, 1 > = < -2, 0, 2 >
Vector equation of L2 :
r(t) = < 1, 1, 1 > + t < -2, 0, 2 >
Parametric equation of L2 :
x = 1 -2t
y = 1
z = 1 + 2t
b) For L1:
A (1; 0; 0); u = < 1, 1, 1 >
B (1; -1; 1); v = < -2, 1, 2 >
AB = < 1-1, -1-0, 1-0 > = < 0, -1, 1 >
[tex]V=det\left[\begin{array}{ccc}0&-1&1\\1&1&1\\-2&1&2\end{array}\right]=7[/tex]
Let u × v = < 1, 1, 1 > × < -2, 1, 2 > = < 1, -4, 3 >
[tex]Ab = \sqrt{(1)^{2} +(-4)^{2} +(3)^{2}} =\sqrt{26}[/tex]
Finally, the distance between L1 and L2 is
[tex]h=\frac{V}{Ab}=\frac{7}{\sqrt{26}}=\frac{7\sqrt{26} }{26}[/tex]
