8. The line l1 and l 2 have vector equations r  m  an and r  p  bq ,

respectively. Where a and b  

m  j  2k , n  3i  5 j  4k and p  i  4 j  k , q  3i  j  k

Point A on l1 and point B on l 2 are such that AB is perpendicular to both

l1 and l 2 .

a) Find a vector parallel to AB

[3m]
b) Obtain the position vector of A and B [9m]
c) Show that the plane through AB perpendicular to l1 has vector [3m]
equation r  (7     )i  (   6 ) j  (1  10 )k where  and    .

Solution

a) l1 : r  a  mb

l 2 : r  c  nd

Let the vector parallel to AB  xi  yj  zk

Given that AB is perpendicular to l1 and l 2

Therefore b.( xi  yj  zk )  0 and d .( xi  yj  zk )  0

(2i  2 j  k ).( xi  yj  zk )  0 and (2i  3 j  k ).( xi  yj  zk )  0

b) l1 : r  2i  5 j  m(2i  2 j  k )

Let m  1, r  2i  5 j  1(2i  2 j  k )

 7i  k

Therefore a position vector of A is 7i  k

l 2 : r  i  4 j  3k  n( 2i  3 j  k )

Let n  1, r  i  4 j  3k  1(2i  3 j  k )

 3i  7 j  4k

Therefore a position vector of B is  3i  7 j  4k

c) Two vectors lying on the plane are AB and the normal to l1 at A.

The vector equation of the normal to l1 at A is i  j

Therefore, the vector equation of the plane is

r  OA   (i  j )  AB
