Find the angle between the lines `(x-2)/3=(y+1)/(-2)=z=2a n d(x-1)/1=(2y+3)/3=(z+5)/2dot`

A

`(pi)/6`

B

`(pi)/4`

C

`(pi)/2`

D

`(pi)/3`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

The given equations are not in the standard form.
The equations of the given lines in standard form can be written as
`(x-2)/3=(y+1)/(-2)=(z-2)/0`…………..i
and `(x-1)/1=(y+3//2)/(3//2)=(z+5)/2`…………..ii
If `theta` is the angle the given lines, then
`cos theta=((3)(1)+(-2)(3//2)+(0)(2))/(sqrt(3^(2)+(-2)^(2)+0^(2))sqrt(1^(2)+(3//2)^(2)+2^(2)))-0`
`impliestheta=pi//2`
