It is known that the equation of the line passing through the points, $(x_{1}, y_{1}, z_{1}) a n d (x_{2}, y_{2}, z_{2}),$ is $\frac{x - x_{1}}{x_{2} - x_{1}} = \frac{x - y_{1}}{y_{2} - y_{1}} = \frac{z - z_{1}}{z_{2} - z_{1}}$

The line passing through the points, $(5, 1, 6) a n d (3, 4, 1),$ is given by,

$\begin{array}{l} \frac{x - 5}{3 - 5} = \frac{y - 1}{4 - 1} = \frac{z - 6}{1 - 6} \\ \Rightarrow \frac{x - 5}{- 2} = \frac{y - 1}{3} = \frac{z - 6}{- 5} = k (s a y) \\ \Rightarrow x = 5 - 2 k, y = 3 k + 1, z = 6 - 5 k \end{array}$

Any point on the line is of the form $(5 - 2 k, 3 k + 1, 6 - 5 k) .$

The equation of $Y Z - p l a n e i s x = 0$

Since the line passes through YZ-plane,

$5 - 2 k = 0$

$\begin{array}{l} \Rightarrow k = \frac{5}{2} \\ \Rightarrow 3 k + 1 = 3 * \frac{5}{2} + 1 = \frac{17}{2} \\ 6 - 5 k = 6 - 5 * \frac{5}{2} = \frac{- 13}{2} \end{array}$

Therefore, the required point is $(0, \frac{17}{2}, \frac{- 13}{2})$ .

$\int_{0}^{\frac{π}{2}} x^{2} c o s x d x + \int_{0}^{\frac{π}{2}} (1 + s i n^{2} x) d x = \frac{π}{4} (π + α) - 2$ ....(1)

Let $I_{1} = \int_{0}^{\frac{π}{2}} (1 + s i n^{2} x) d x$

$I_{1} = \int_{0}^{\frac{π}{2}} 1 \cdot d x + \int_{0}^{\frac{π}{2}} (\frac{1 - c o s 2 x}{2}) d x$

$I_{1} = \frac{π}{2} + \frac{1}{2} [\frac{π}{2} + 0]$

$I_{2} = {[x^{2} (s i n x) - \int 2 x \int c o s x d x]}_{0}^{\frac{π}{2}}$

$I_{2} = {[x^{2} (s i n x) - 2 \int x s i n x]}_{0}^{\frac{π}{2}}$

$I_{2} = {[x^{2} s i n x - 2 (x (- c o s x) + \int c o s x)]}_{0}^{\frac{π}{2}}$

$I_{2} = {[x^{2} s i n x - 2 (- x c o s x + s i n x)]}_{0}^{\frac{π}{2}}$

$I_{2} = (\frac{π^{2}}{4} - 2)$

If $| \vec{a} | = 1$ , $| \vec{b} | = 4$ $\vec{a} \cdot \vec{b} = 2$  and $\vec{c} = 2 (\vec{a} \times \vec{b}) - 3 \vec{b}$ Then the angle between $\vec{b}$ and $\vec{c}$ is

Alok Kumar Singh

Given $| \vec{a} | = 1$ , $| \vec{b} | = 4$ , $\vec{a} \cdot \vec{b} = 2$

$\vec{c} = 2 (\vec{a} \times \vec{b}) - 3 \vec{b}$

Dot product with $\vec{a}$ on both sides

$\vec{c} \cdot \vec{a} = - 6$ ... (1)

Dot product with $\vec{b}$ on both sides

$\vec{b} \cdot \vec{c} = - 48$ ... (2)

$\vec{c} \cdot \vec{c} = 4 {| \vec{a} \times \vec{b} |}^{2} + 9 {| \vec{b} |}^{2}$

${| \vec{c} |}^{2} = 4 [{| \vec{a} |}^{2} \cdot {| \vec{b} |}^{2} - {(\vec{a} \cdot \vec{b})}^{2}] + 9 {| \vec{b} |}^{2}$

${| \vec{c} |}^{2} = 4 [(1) {(4)}^{2} - (4)] + 9 (16)$

${| \vec{c} |}^{2} = 4 [12] + 144$

${| \vec{c} |}^{2} = 48 + 144$

${| \vec{c} |}^{2} = 192$

$c o s θ = \frac{\vec{b} \cdot \vec{c}}{| \vec{b} | | \vec{c} |}$

$c o s θ = \frac{- 48}{\sqrt[]{192} \cdot 4}$

$c o s θ = \frac{- 48}{8 \sqrt[]{3} \cdot 4}$

$c o s θ = \frac{- 3}{2 \sqrt[]{3}}$

$c o s θ = \frac{- \sqrt[]{3}}{2}$ $θ = c o s^{- 1} (\frac{- \sqrt[]{3}}{2})$

(a – 1) × 2 + (b – 2) × 5 + (g – 3) × 1 = 0

2a + 5b + g – 15 = 0

Also, P lie on line

a + 1 = 2λ

b – 2 = 5λ

g – 4 = λ

2 (2λ – 1) + 5 (5λ + 2) + λ + 4 – 15 = 0

4λ + 25λ + λ – 2 + 10 + 4 – 15 = 0

30λ – 3 = 0

$λ = \frac{1}{10}$

a + b + g = (2λ – 1) + (5λ + 2) + (λ + 4)

$= 8 λ + 5 = \frac{8}{10} + 5 = 5.8$

Alok Kumar Singh

Take $\frac{x - 1}{2} = \frac{y - 2}{3} = \frac{z - 3}{4} = λ$

x = 2λ + 1, y = 3λ + 2, z = 4λ + 3

$\vec{A B}$ = (α − 2) $\hat{i}$ + (β − 3) $\hat{j}$ + (γ − 4) $\hat{k}$

Now,

(α − 2) ⋅ 2 + (β − 3) ⋅3 + (γ − 4) ⋅ 4 = 0

2α − 4 + 3β − 9 + 4γ −16 = 0

⇒ 2α + 3β + 4γ = 29

Vishal Baghel

$L_{1} = \frac{x - λ}{1} = \frac{y - \frac{1}{2}}{\frac{1}{2}} = \frac{z}{- \frac{1}{2}}$

$∴ S D = \frac{| - 2 λ + 3 (2 λ + \frac{1}{2}) + λ |}{\sqrt[]{14}} = \frac{| 5 λ + \frac{3}{2} |}{\sqrt[]{14}}$

$5 λ + \frac{3}{2} = - \frac{7}{2} \Rightarrow 5 λ = - 5 \Rightarrow λ = - 1$

$∴ | λ | = 1$
