Question
Question: The angle between the straight lines \(\frac { x - 2 } { 2 } = \frac { y - 1 } { 5 } = \frac { z + 3...
The angle between the straight lines 2x−2=5y−1=−3z+3and −1x+1=8y−4=4z−5is
A
cos−1(93813)
B
cos−1(93826)
C
cos−1(384)
D
cos−1(1922)
Answer
cos−1(93826)
Explanation
Solution
cosθ=22+52+(−3)2(−1)2+82+422×(−1)+5×8+(−3)×4
cosθ=938−2+40−12 =(93826)
∴ θ=cos−1(93826).
