To find the coordinates of point \( P \) given that \( OP = 3 \) and the direction ratios are \( -1, 2, -2 \), we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Define the Direction Ratios The direction ratios are given as \( -1, 2, -2 \). We can denote these as: - \( L = -1 \) - \( M = 2 \) - \( N = -2 \) ...
