Question
The straigth line $\frac{\text{x}-3}{3}=\frac{\text{y}-2}{1}=\frac{\text{z}-1}{0}$ is:
✓
Answer
perpendicular to z-axis
Solution:
We have
$\frac{\text{x}-3}{3}=\frac{\text{y}-2}{1}=\frac{\text{z}-1}{0}$
Also, the given line is parallel to the vector $\vec{\text{b}}=3\hat{\text{i}}+\hat{\text{j}}+0\hat{\text{k}}$
Let $\text{x}\hat{\text{i}}+\text{y}\hat{\text{j}}+\text{z}\hat{\text{k}}$ be parpendicular to the given line.
Now,
$3\text{x}+4\text{y}+0\text{z}=0$
It is satisfied by the coordinates of z-axis, i.e. (0, 0, 1).
Hence, the given line is perpendicular to z-axis.
