If \((\alpha, \beta, \gamma)\) is the foot of the perpendicular drawn from a point \((-1,2,-1)\) to the line joining the points \((2,-1,1)\) and \((1,1,-2)\), then \(\alpha+\beta+\gamma=\)
- A \(2\)
- B \(-\frac{1}{7}\)
- C \(0\)
- D \(\frac{3}{14}\)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) \(-\frac{1}{7}\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Line direction vector: \( \vec{d} = (1-2, 1-(-1), -2-1) = (-1, 2, -3) \) Foot of perpendicular \( (\alpha, \beta, \gamma) = (2-t, -1+2t, 1-3t) \) Vector from point \( (-1,2,-1) \) to foot: \( \vec{P_0F} = (2-t - (-1), -1+2t - 2, 1-3t - (-1)) = (3-t, -3+2t, 2-3t) \) For…
