Detailed Solution for Test: MCQs (One or More Correct Option): Vector Algebra and Three Dimensional Geometry | JEE Advanced - Question 15

Lines are x = y, z = 1

Let Q (a, a, 1) and R (– β,β, – 1) Direction ratios of PQ are λ – α, λ – α, λ – 1 and direction ratios of PR are λ + β, λ – β, λ + 1
∴ PQ is perpendicular to line (1)

∴ – (λ + β) + λ – β = 0  ⇒ b = 0
∴ dr’s of PQ are 0, 0, λ – 1 and dr’s of PR are λ, λ, λ + 1
∵ ∠QPR = 90° ⇒ (λ – l) (λ + 1) = 0 ⇒ λ = 1 or – 1
But for λ = 1, we get point Q itself
∴ we take λ = – 1
