It is given that  l1, m1, n1 and l2, m2, n2  are the direction cosines of two mutually perpendicular lines. Therefore,

l1l2+m1m2+n1 n2=0..........(1)l12+m12+n1 2=1..........(2)l22+m22+n2 2=1..........(3)

Let  l, m, n  be the direction cosines of the line which is perpendicular to the line with direction cosines  l1, m1, n1 and l2, m2, n2.

ll1+ mm1+ nn1 =0l l2+m m2+n n2=0lm1n2m2n1=mn1l2n2l1=nl1m2l2m1l2(m1n2m2n1)2=m2(n1l2n2l1)2=n2(l1m2l2m1)2l2(m1n2m2n1)2=m2(n1l2n2l1)2=n2(l1m2l2m2)2=l2+m2+n2(m1n2m2n1)2+(n1l2n2l1)2+(l1m2l2m2)2..........(4)

l, m, n  are the direction cosines of the line.

l2 + m2 + n2 =1(5)

It is known that,

(l12+m12+n1 2)(l22+m22+n2 2)(l1l2+m1m2+n1 n2)2=(m1n2m2n1)2+(n1l2n2l1)2+(l1m2l2m1)2From,(1),(2)&(3),we.obtain1.10=(m1n2m2n1)2+(n1l2n2l1)2+(l1m2l2m1)2(m1n2m2n1)2+(n1l2n2l1)2+(l1m2l2m1)2=1..........(6)
