Find the projection of the line segment joining the points (1, 2, 3), (4, 3, 1) on the line with direction ratios 3, –6, –2.
A directed line segment makes angles 45° and 60° with x-axis and y-axis and an acute angle with z-axis. If P (– 1, 2, – 3) and Q (4, 3, 1) are two points in space, find the projection of PQ on the given line.
If P, Q, R, S are the points (– 2, 3, 4), (– 4, 4, 6), (4, 3, 5), (0, 1, 2), prove by projection that PQ is perpendicular to RS.
The projections of a directed line segment on the co-ordinate axes are 6, -3, 2. Find its length and direction cosines.
