Find the value of `lambda` so that the following lines are perpendicular to each other. `(x-5)/(5lambda+2)=(2-y)/5=(1-z)/(-1), x/1=(2y+1)/(4lambda)=(1-z)/(-3)`

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To find the value of \( \lambda \) such that the given lines are perpendicular, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Write the equations of the lines in parametric form The first line is given by: \[ \frac{x - 5}{5\lambda + 2} = \frac{2 - y}{5} = \frac{1 - z}{-1} \] ...
