The correct Answer is:
To find the direction ratios of the line given by the equations \( x - y + z - 5 = 0 \) and \( x - 3y - 6 = 0 \), we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Write the equations in a more manageable form We have two equations: 1. \( x - y + z - 5 = 0 \) 2. \( x - 3y - 6 = 0 \) ### Step 2: Express one variable in terms of another From the second equation, we can express \( x \) in terms of \( y \): \[ x = 3y + 6 \] ### Step 3: Substitute \( x \) into the first equation Now, substitute \( x = 3y + 6 \) into the first equation: \[ (3y + 6) - y + z - 5 = 0 \] Simplifying this gives: \[ 3y + 6 - y + z - 5 = 0 \\ 2y + z + 1 = 0 \\ z = -2y - 1 \] ### Step 4: Express \( y \) in terms of \( z \) From the equation \( z = -2y - 1 \), we can express \( y \) in terms of \( z \): \[ 2y = -z - 1 \\ y = -\frac{z + 1}{2} \] ### Step 5: Write the parametric equations Now we have: - \( x = 3y + 6 \) - \( y = y \) - \( z = -2y - 1 \) We can express \( y \) in terms of a parameter \( t \): Let \( y = t \), then: \[ x = 3t + 6 \\ z = -2t - 1 \] ### Step 6: Write the parametric equations in standard form The parametric equations can be written as: \[ \begin{align*} x &= 3t + 6 \\ y &= t \\ z &= -2t - 1 \end{align*} \] ### Step 7: Identify the direction ratios From the parametric equations, the coefficients of \( t \) give us the direction ratios of the line: - For \( x \): coefficient is 3 - For \( y \): coefficient is 1 - For \( z \): coefficient is -2 Thus, the direction ratios of the line are: \[ (3, 1, -2) \] ### Final Answer The direction ratios of the line are \( (3, 1, -2) \). ---
