The image of the origin in the line joining the points $(-9, 4, 5)$ and $(11, 0, -1)$ is:
  • $(2, 4, 4)$
  • B
    $(1, 2, 2)$
  • C
    $(1, 2, 3)$
  • D
    $(2, 2, 1)$
Answer
Correct option: A.
$(2, 4, 4)$
Let $BC$ be the given line
Let there be a point $D$ on $BC$ such that $OD$ is perpendicular to $BC$.
Any general point on BC can be written as $(-9 + 20k, 4 - 4k, 5 - 6k)$
Now drs of $BC = (20, -4, -6)$,
drs of $OD = (-9 + 20k, 4 - 4k, 5 - 6k)$
Since $OD$ is perpendicular to $BC, OD.BC = 0$
$-180 + 400k - 16 + 16k - 30 + 36k = 0$
i.e k $= 0.5$
Putting the value of $k$ back in $D$,
$D (1, 2, 2)$
Let the image of the origin in line $BC$ be $E$.
Since $E$ is the mid point of $OD$ we get $E$ to be$ (2, 4, 4).$

Statement 1: The point $A (1, 0, 7)$ is the mirror image of the point $B (1, 6, 3)$ in the line$\frac{\text{x}}{1}=\frac{\text{y}-1}{2}=\frac{\text{z}-2}{3}$
Statement 2: The line: $\frac{\text{x}}{1}=\frac{\text{y}-1}{2}=\frac{\text{z}-2}{3}$ bisects the line segment joining $A (1, 0, 7)$ and $B (1, 6, 3).$
  • A
    Statement-$1$ is true, Statement-$2$ is true; Statement-$2$ is a correct explanation for Statement-$1$.
  • Statement-$1$ is true, Statement-$2$ is true; Statement-$2$ is not a correct explanation for Statement-$1$
  • C
    Statement-$1$ is true, Statement-$2$ is false
  • D
    Statement-$1$ is false, Statement-$2$ is true.
Answer
Correct option: B.
Statement-$1$ is true, Statement-$2$ is true; Statement-$2$ is not a correct explanation for Statement-$1$
The direction ratio of the line segment joining points $A (1, 0, 7)$ and $B (1, 6, 3)$ is $0, 6, -4.$
The direction ratio of the given line is $1, 2, 3$.
Clearly $1.0 + 2.6 + 3.(-4) = 0$
So, the given line is perpendicular to line AB.
Also , the mid point of $A $and $B$ is $(1, 3, 5)$ which lies on the given line.
So, the image of $B$ in the given line is $A$, because the given line is the perpendicularbisector of line segment joining points $A$ and $B$.

If $P$ $= (8, 6)$ and $R$ is the rotation through $90°$ about $O,$ then $R_{-90}​$ $O$ $(P)$ is:
  • $(6, -8)$
  • B
    $(-8, -6)$
  • C
    $(8, 6)$
  • D
    $(-8, 6)$
Answer
Correct option: A.
$(6, -8)$
Since, $P$ $= (8, 6)$ and R is the rotation through $90°$ about $O$,
$\therefore$ $R{-90​}$ $O (P)$$ = (6, -8)$
Because, $x$ - axis becomes $y$ - axis and $y$ - axis becomes $x$ - axis due to rotation through $90^\circ $ about the origin i.e.,
$R_{-90}​ O (P) = (6, -8)$
