If the lines \(\frac{1-x}{2}=\frac{7 y+4}{2 \lambda}=\frac{2 z-5}{2}\) and \(\frac{7-7 x}{3 \lambda}=\frac{y-1}{7}=\frac{6-z}{5}\) are at right angle, then the value of \(\lambda\) is

  1. A \(\frac{4}{7}\)
  2. B \(\frac{7}{4}\)
  3. C \(\frac{20}{7}\)
  4. D \(\frac{5}{4}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(\frac{7}{4}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Line 1: \(\frac{x-1}{-2}=\frac{y-(-4/7)}{2\lambda/7}=\frac{z-5/2}{1}\) \(\vec{d_1} = \langle -2, \frac{2\lambda}{7}, 1 \rangle\)
