The correct Answer is:
To find the foot of the perpendicular from the point \( P(2, 0, 5) \) to the line given by the equations \( \frac{x + 1}{2} = \frac{y - 1}{5} = \frac{z + 1}{-1} \), we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Parametrize the Line The line can be parametrized using a parameter \( t \): \[ x = 2t - 1, \quad y = 5t + 1, \quad z = -t - 1 \] ### Step 2: Write the Position Vector of the Point on the Line The position vector \( \vec{F} \) of a point on the line is: \[ \vec{F} = (2t - 1, 5t + 1, -t - 1) \] ### Step 3: Write the Vector from Point \( P \) to Point \( F \) The vector \( \vec{PF} \) from point \( P(2, 0, 5) \) to point \( F \) is: \[ \vec{PF} = \vec{F} - \vec{P} = (2t - 1 - 2, 5t + 1 - 0, -t - 1 - 5) = (2t - 3, 5t + 1, -t - 6) \] ### Step 4: Direction Vector of the Line The direction vector \( \vec{A} \) of the line is: \[ \vec{A} = (2, 5, -1) \] ### Step 5: Set Up the Dot Product Equation Since \( \vec{PF} \) is perpendicular to \( \vec{A} \), we have: \[ \vec{PF} \cdot \vec{A} = 0 \] This gives: \[ (2t - 3) \cdot 2 + (5t + 1) \cdot 5 + (-t - 6) \cdot (-1) = 0 \] Expanding this: \[ 4t - 6 + 25t + 5 + t + 6 = 0 \] Combining like terms: \[ 30t + 5 = 0 \] Thus, \[ t = -\frac{1}{6} \] ### Step 6: Substitute \( t \) Back into the Parametric Equations Now substitute \( t = -\frac{1}{6} \) back into the parametric equations of the line to find the coordinates of point \( F \): \[ x = 2\left(-\frac{1}{6}\right) - 1 = -\frac{1}{3} - 1 = -\frac{4}{3} \] \[ y = 5\left(-\frac{1}{6}\right) + 1 = -\frac{5}{6} + 1 = \frac{1}{6} \] \[ z = -\left(-\frac{1}{6}\right) - 1 = \frac{1}{6} - 1 = -\frac{5}{6} \] Thus, the foot of the perpendicular \( F \) is: \[ F\left(-\frac{4}{3}, \frac{1}{6}, -\frac{5}{6}\right) \] ### Step 7: Identify the Values of \( \alpha, \beta, \gamma \) From the coordinates of \( F \): \[ \alpha = -\frac{4}{3}, \quad \beta = \frac{1}{6}, \quad \gamma = -\frac{5}{6} \] ### Step 8: Analyze the Options Now we need to check which of the given options is NOT correct based on the values of \( \alpha, \beta, \gamma \).
