Let the line L pass through the point (-3, 5, 2) and make equal angles with the positive coordinate axes. If the distance of L from the point \( (-2,r,1) \) is \( \sqrt{\frac{14}{3}} \). then the sum of all possible values of r is :

  1. A 12
  2. B 16
  3. C 6
  4. D 10
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) 10

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Equation line is: \( \frac{x+3}{1}=\frac{y-5}{1}=\frac{z-2}{1}=\lambda \) \(\therefore\) General point R on line is \( R(\lambda-3,\lambda+5,\lambda+2) \) \(\overrightarrow{PR}\equiv(\lambda-1,\lambda+5-r,\lambda+1) \) Now \(\overrightarrow{ PR } \cdot \overrightarrow{ d }=0\)…
