If two lines are parallel to each other, then which of the following is true? (if \(\left(l_1, m_1, n_1\right)\) and \(\left(l_2, m_2, n_2\right)\) are direction cosines of the two lines).
- A \(I_1 I_2+m_1 m_2+n_1 n_2=0\)
- B \(\Sigma\left(l_1 l_2-m_2 m_1\right)^2=0\)
- C \(\frac{l_1}{l_2}=\frac{m_1}{m_2}=\frac{n_1}{n_2}\)
- D \(l_1 l_2+m_1 m_2+n_1 n_2=1\)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) \(\frac{l_1}{l_2}=\frac{m_1}{m_2}=\frac{n_1}{n_2}\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
The two lines having direction \(\operatorname{cosines} l_1, m_1, n_1\) and \(l_2, m_2, n_2\) respectively are parallel to each other, then \(\frac{l_1}{l_2}=\frac{m_1}{m_2}=\frac{n_1}{n_2}\) Hence, option (c) is correct.
