Find the vector equation of a lane passi...

Find the vector equation of a lane passing through a point having position vector `2i+3j-4k` and perpendicular to the vector `2i-j+2kdot` Also, reduce it to Cartesian form.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

We know that,
`(r−a)⋅n=0`
i.e.`r⋅n=a⋅n`
`r⋅(2−j​+2k)=(2i+3j−4k)⋅(2i−j​+2k)`
`=>r⋅(2i−j​+2k)=4−3−8`
`=>r⋅(2i−j​+2k)=−7`
