\end{aligned}\)
\(\begin{aligned}

\(=\hat{i}(-10+12)-\hat{j}(-5+6)+\hat{k}(4-4)\)
\(=2 \hat{i}-\hat{j}\)
\(\Rightarrow \left|b_{1} \times b_{2}\right|=\sqrt{2^{2}+(-1)^{2}}=\sqrt{4+1}=\sqrt{5}\)
Now, the shortest distance between the given lines is given by
\(d=\frac{\left|\left(b_{1} \times b_{2}\right) \cdot\left(a_{2}-a_{1}\right)\right|}{\left|b_{1} \times b_{2}\right|}=\frac{|(2 \hat{i}-\hat{j}) \cdot(-3 \hat{i}+2 \hat{k})|}{\sqrt{5}}\)
\(=\frac{|-6|}{\sqrt{5}}=\frac{6}{\sqrt{5}} \text { units }\)

We have,
\(\overrightarrow{A B}\) = (position vector of B) - (position vector of A)
\(=(\hat{i}-3 \hat{j}-5 \hat{k})-(2 \hat{i}-\hat{j}+\hat{k})=-\hat{i}-2 \hat{j}-6 \hat{k}\)
\(\begin{aligned}
\overrightarrow{B C}=(3 \hat{i}-4 \hat{j}-4 \hat{k})-(\hat{i}-3 \hat{j}-5 \hat{k})=2 \hat{i}-\hat{j}+\hat{k}
\end{aligned}\)
and \(\begin{aligned}
\overrightarrow{C A}=(2 \hat{i}-\hat{j}+\hat{k})-(3 \hat{i}-4 \hat{j}-4 \hat{k})
\end{aligned}\)
\(=-\hat{i}+3 \hat{j}+5 \hat{k}\)
Here, \(\overrightarrow{A B}+\overrightarrow{B C}+\overrightarrow{C A}=0\)
\(\Rightarrow\) A, B and C are the vertices of a triangle.
Now, \(\overrightarrow{B C} \cdot \overrightarrow{C A}=(2 \hat{i}-\hat{j}+\hat{k}) \cdot(-\hat{i}+3 \hat{j}+5 \hat{k})\)
= - 2 - 3 + 5 = 0
\(\Rightarrow \overrightarrow{B C} \perp \overrightarrow{C A} \Rightarrow \angle C=90^{\circ}\)

Now, area of \(\Delta A B C=\frac{1}{2}|\overrightarrow{C A} \times \overrightarrow{B C}|\)
\(=\frac{1}{2}\left|\begin{array}{ccc}
\hat{i} & \hat{j} & \hat{k} \\
-1 & 3 & 5 \\
2 & -1 & 1
\end{array}\right|=\frac{1}{2}|(8 \hat{i}-11 \hat{j}-5 \hat{k})|\)
\(=\frac{1}{2} \sqrt{64+121+25}\)
\(=\frac{1}{2} \sqrt{210}\) sq units

We have, \(\vec{a}=\hat{i}+2 \hat{\jmath}+3 \hat{k} \text { and } \vec{b}=2 \hat{i}+4 \hat{\jmath}-5 \hat{k}\)
So, the diagonals of the parallelogram whose adjacent sides are \(\vec{a} \text { and } \vec{b}\) are given by
\(\begin{aligned}
\vec{p} & =\vec{a}+\vec{b} \text { and } \vec{q}=\vec{a}-\vec{b}
\end{aligned}\)
Now, \(\begin{aligned}
\vec{p} & =(\hat{i}+2 \hat{j}+3 \hat{k})+(2 \hat{i}+4 \hat{j}-5 \hat{k})
\end{aligned}\)
\(\begin{aligned}
=3 \hat{i}+6 \hat{j}-2 \hat{k}
\end{aligned}\)
and \(\begin{aligned}
\vec{q} & =(\hat{i}+2 \hat{j}+3 \hat{k})-(2 \hat{i}+4 \hat{j}-5 \hat{k})
\end{aligned}\)
\(\begin{aligned}
=-\hat{i}-2 \hat{j}+8 \hat{k}
\end{aligned}\)
\(\begin{aligned}
\therefore \quad \hat{p} & =\frac{\vec{p}}{|\vec{p}|}=\frac{3 \hat{i}+6 \hat{j}-2 \hat{k}}{\sqrt{9+36+4}}
\end{aligned}\)
\(\begin{aligned}
=\frac{3 \hat{i}+6 \hat{j}-2 \hat{k}}{7}=\frac{3}{7} \hat{i}+\frac{6}{7} \hat{j}-\frac{2}{7} \hat{k}
\end{aligned}\)
and \(\begin{aligned}
\hat{q} & =\frac{\vec{q}}{|\vec{q}|}=\frac{-\hat{i}-2 \hat{j}+8 \hat{k}}{\sqrt{1+4+64}}=\frac{-\hat{i}-2 \hat{j}+8 \hat{k}}{\sqrt{69}}
\end{aligned}\)
\(\begin{aligned}
=\frac{-1}{\sqrt{69}} \hat{i}-\frac{2}{\sqrt{69}} \hat{j}+\frac{8}{\sqrt{69}} \hat{k}
\end{aligned}\)

Given, equations of lines are
\(\begin{aligned}
\vec{r}=(8 \hat{i}-19 \hat{j}+10 \hat{k})+\lambda(3 \hat{i}-16 \hat{j}+7 \hat{k})
\end{aligned}\)
and \(\begin{aligned}
\vec{r}=(15 \hat{i}+29 \hat{j}+5 \hat{k})+\mu(3 \hat{i}+8 \hat{j}-5 \hat{k})
\end{aligned}\)
On comparing with vector form of equation of a line,
i.e., \(\vec{r}=\vec{a}+\lambda \vec{b}\) we get
\(\vec{b}_1=3 \hat{i}-16 \hat{j}+7 \hat{k} \text { and } \vec{b}_2=3 \hat{i}+8 \hat{j}-5 \hat{k}\)
Now, we determine
\(\begin{aligned}
\vec{b} & =\vec{b}_1 \times \vec{b}_2=\left|\begin{array}{rrr}
\hat{i} & \hat{j} & \hat{k} \\
3 & -16 & 7 \\
3 & 8 & -5
\end{array}\right|
\end{aligned}\)
\(=\hat{i}(80-56)-\hat{j}(-15-21)+\hat{k}(24+48) \)
\(=24 \hat{i}+36 \hat{j}+72 \hat{k}=12(2 \hat{i}+3 \hat{j}+6 \hat{k})\)
Since, the required line is perpendicular to the given lines. So, it is parallel to \(\vec{b}_1 \times \vec{b}_2\). Now, the equation of a line passing through the point (1, 2, -4) and parallel to \(24 \hat{i}+36 \hat{j}+72 \hat{k} \text { or }(2 \hat{i}+3 \hat{j}+6 \hat{k})\) is
\(\vec{r}=(\hat{i}+2 \hat{j}-4 \hat{k})+\lambda(2 \hat{i}+3 \hat{j}+6 \hat{k})\)
which is required vector equation of a line.
For cartesian equation, put \(\vec{r}=x \hat{i}+y \hat{j}+z \hat{k}\), we get
\(x \hat{i}+y \hat{j}+z \hat{k}=(1+2 \lambda) \hat{i}+(2+3 \lambda) \hat{j}+(-4+6 \lambda) \hat{k}\)
On comparing the coefficients of \(\hat{i}, \hat{j} \text { and } \hat{k}\), we get
\(\begin{aligned}
x=1+2 \lambda, y=2+3 \lambda \text { and } z=-4+6 \lambda
\end{aligned}\)
\(\begin{aligned}
\Rightarrow \quad \frac{x-1}{2}=\lambda, \frac{y-2}{3}=\lambda \text { and } \frac{z+4}{6}=\lambda
\end{aligned}\)
\(\begin{aligned}
\therefore \quad \frac{x-1}{2}=\frac{y-2}{3}=\frac{z+4}{6}
\end{aligned}\)
which is the required cartesian equation of a line.
Alternate Method
Let the equation of line passing through (1, 2, -4) is
\(\vec{r}=(\hat{i}+2 \hat{j}-4 \hat{k})+\lambda_1\left(b_1 \hat{i}+b_2 \hat{j}+b_3 \hat{k}\right)\) ...(i)
Since, the line (i) is perpendicular to the given lines
\(\begin{aligned}
\vec{r}=(8 \hat{i}-19 \hat{j}+10 \hat{k})+\lambda(3 \hat{i}-16 \hat{j}+7 \hat{k})
\end{aligned}\)
and \(\begin{aligned}
\vec{r}=(15 \hat{i}+29 \hat{j}+5 \hat{k})+\mu(3 \hat{i}+8 \hat{j}-5 \hat{k})
\end{aligned}\)
Therefore, we have
\(\begin{aligned}
\Rightarrow \quad\left(b_1 \hat{i}+b_2 \hat{j}+b_3 \hat{k}\right) \cdot(3 \hat{i}-16 \hat{j}+7 \hat{k})=0
\end{aligned}\)
\(\begin{aligned}
\Rightarrow \quad 3 b_1-16 b_2+7 b_3=0
\end{aligned}\) ...(ii)
\(\begin{aligned}
\text { and } \quad\left(b_1 \hat{i}+b_2 \hat{j}+b_3 \hat{k}\right) \cdot(3 \hat{i}+8 \hat{j}-5 \hat{k})=0 \\
\end{aligned}\)
\(\begin{aligned}
\Rightarrow \quad 3 b_1+8 b_2-5 b_3=0
\end{aligned}\) ...(iii)
[\(\because\) if two lines \(\vec{r}=\vec{a}_1+\lambda \vec{b}_1 \text { and } \vec{r}=\vec{a}_2+\lambda \vec{b}_2\) are perpendicular, then \(\vec{b}_1 \cdot \vec{b}_2=0 .\)]
Now, on solving Eqs. (ii) and (iii), we get
\(\begin{array}{rlrl}
\frac{b_1}{80-56}= \frac{b_2}{21+15}=\frac{b_3}{24+48}
\end{array}\)
\(\begin{array}{rlrl}
\Rightarrow & \frac{b_1}{24} & =\frac{b_2}{36}=\frac{b_3}{72}
\end{array}\)
\(\begin{array}{rlrl}
\Rightarrow & \frac{b_1}{2} & =\frac{b_2}{3}=\frac{b_3}{6}
\end{array}\) [multiplying by 12]
\(\Rightarrow\) b1 = 2k, b2 = 3k and b3 = 6k, for some constant k.
Thus, the required vector equation of line is
\(\vec{r}=(\hat{i}+2 \hat{j}-4 \hat{k})+\lambda(2 \hat{i}+3 \hat{j}+6 \hat{k})\),
where \(\lambda=\lambda_1 k\) is any constant.
Now, for cartesian equation do same as in above method.

\(\Rightarrow\) BA = 67 I
B-1BA = B-167 [Pre-multiplying both sides by B-1]
\(\Rightarrow\) A = B-167 [\(\because\) B-1 = B = I]
\(\Rightarrow \quad B^{-1}=\frac{1}{67} A=\frac{1}{67}\left[\begin{array}{ccc}

The lines which are neither intersecting nor parallel are called skew lines.

and \(\vec{r}=15 \hat{i}+29 \hat{j}+5 \hat{k}+\mu(3 \hat{i}+8 \hat{j}-5 \hat{k})\) ...(ii)

\({9z\over100}=600+{8y\over100}\)

Let the cost of 1 pen = Rs. x, the cost of 1 bag = Rs. y, and the cost of 1 instrument box = Rs. z
According to the question, we have
5x + 3y + z = 16, 2x + Y + 3z = 19, x + 2y + 4z = 25
This system of equation can be written as AX = B,
where \(A=\left[\begin{array}{lll} 5 & 3 & 1 \\ 2 & 1 & 3 \\ 1 & 2 & 4 \end{array}\right], B=\left[\begin{array}{l} 16 \\ 19 \\ 25 \end{array}\right] \) and \(X=\left[\begin{array}{l} x \\ y \\ z \end{array}\right]\)
IAI = 5(4 - 6) - 3(8 - 3) + 1(4 - 1)
\(=-10-3(5)+3=-22 \neq 0\)
\(\therefore\) A -1 exists.
Now, X = A-1B, where \(A^{-1}=\frac{1}{|A|} \operatorname{adj} A\)
Here, \(\operatorname{adj} A=\left[\begin{array}{ccc} -2 & -5 & 3 \\ -10 & 19 & -7 \\ 8 & -13 & -1 \end{array}\right]^{\prime}=\left[\begin{array}{ccc} -2 & -10 & 8 \\ -5 & 19 & -13 \\ 3 & -7 & -1 \end{array}\right]\)
\(\therefore \quad A^{-1}=\frac{1}{-22}\left[\begin{array}{ccc} -2 & -10 & 8 \\ -5 & 19 & -13 \\ 3 & -7 & -1 \end{array}\right]\)
\(\therefore \quad X=\left[\begin{array}{l} x \\ y \\ z \end{array}\right]=\frac{1}{-22}\left[\begin{array}{ccc} -2 & -10 & 8 \\ -5 & 19 & -13 \\ 3 & -7 & -1 \end{array}\right]\left[\begin{array}{c} 16 \\ 19 \\ 25 \end{array}\right]\)
\(=\frac{1}{-22}\left[\begin{array}{c} -32-190+200 \\ -80+361-325 \\ 48-133-25 \end{array}\right]=\frac{-1}{22}\left[\begin{array}{c} -22 \\ -44 \\ -110 \end{array}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{l} 1 \\ 2 \\ 5 \end{array}\right]\)
\(\therefore\) x = 1, y = 2, z = 5
Hence, cost of one pen, one bag and an instrument box isRs. 1, Rs. 2 and Rs. 5 respectively.
(i) (c) : Cost of one pen is Rs. 1.
(ii) (a) : Cost of one pen. and one bag = Rs. (1 + 2) = Rs. 3
(iii) (b) : Cost of one pen and one instrument box
= Rs. (1 + 5) = Rs. 6
(iv) (c) : According to the definition of determinant, determinartt is a number associated to a square matrix.
(v) (b) : Given matrix equation is AB = AC Pre-multiplying by A-I on both sides, we get
\(A^{-1} A B=A^{-1} A C \Rightarrow\left(A^{-1} A\right) B=\left(A^{-1} A\right) C\)
\(\Rightarrow \quad I B=I C \quad\left(\because A A^{-1}=A^{-1} A=I\right)\)
\(\Rightarrow B=C\)
Since A-1 exists only if A i's non-singular
\(\therefore\) For B = C, A should be non-singular
41.
(i) (d) : Clearly, the coordinates of A are (8,10, 0) and Dare (0, 0, 30)
∴ Equation of AD is given by
\(\frac{x-0}{8-0}=\frac{y-0}{10-0}=\frac{z-30}{-30} \)
\(\Rightarrow \quad \frac{x}{4}=\frac{y}{5}=\frac{30-z}{15}\)
(ii) (b): The coordinates of point Care (15, -20, 0) and Dare (0, 0, 30)
∴ Length of the cable DC
\(=\sqrt{(0-15)^{2}+(0+20)^{2}+(30-0)^{2}}\)
\(=\sqrt{225+400+900}=\sqrt{1525}=5 \sqrt{61} \mathrm{~m}\)
(iii) (a) : Since, the coordinates of point Bare (-6, 4, 0) and Dare (0, 0, 30), therefore vector DB is
\((-6-0) \hat{i}+(4-0) \hat{j}+(0-30) \hat{k}, \text { i.e., }-6 \hat{i}+4 \hat{j}-30 \hat{k}\)

\(=17 \hat{i}-6 \hat{i}-90 \hat{k}\)
(v) (a): Clearly, OA = \(\sqrt{8^{2}+10^{2}}=\sqrt{164}\)
\(O B=\sqrt{6^{2}+4^{2}}=\sqrt{36+16}=\sqrt{52} \ \text { and } O C=\sqrt{15^{2}+20^{2}}=\sqrt{225+400}=\sqrt{625} \)

Sample space is given by {MFSD, MFDS, MSFD, MSDF, MDFS, MDSF, FMSD, FMDS, FSMD, FSDM, FDMS, FDSM, SFMD, SFDM, SMFD, SMDF, SDMF, SDFM DFMS, DFSM, DMSF, DMFS, DSMF, DSFM}, where F, M, D and S represent father, mother, daughter and son respectively.
∴ n(S) = 24
(i) (a): Let A denotes the event that daughter is at one end.
∴ n(A) = 12
and B denotes the event that father and mother are in the middle.
∴ n(B) = 4
Also, n(A \(\cap\) B) = 4
\(\therefore \ P(A \mid B)=\frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(B)}=\frac{4 / 24}{4 / 24}=1\)
(ii) (b): Let A denotes the event that mother is at right end.
∴ n(A) = 6
and B denotes the event that son and daughter are together.
∴ n(B) = 12
Also, n(A \(\cap\) B) = 4
\(\therefore \ P(A \mid B)=\frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(B)}=\frac{4 / 24}{12 / 24}=\frac{1}{3}\)
(iii) (c) : Let A denotes the event that father and mother are in the middle.
∴ n(A) = 4
and B denotes the event that son is at right end.
∴ n(B) = 6
Also, n(A \(\cap\) B) = 2
\(\therefore \ P(A \mid B)=\frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(B)}=\frac{2 / 24}{6 / 24}=\frac{1}{3}\)
(iv) (d): Let A denotes the event that father and son are standing tbgether.
∴ n(A) = 12
and B denotes the event that mother and daughter are standing together.
∴ n(B) = 12
Also, n(A \(\cap\) B) = 8
\(\therefore \ P(A \mid B)=\frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(B)}=\frac{8 / 24}{12 / 24}=\frac{2}{3}\)
(v) (a): Let A denotes the event that father and mother are on either of the ends.
∴ n(A) = 4
and B denotes the event that son is at second position from the right end.
∴ n(B) = 6
Also, n(A \(\cap\) B) = 2
\(\therefore \ P(A \mid B)=\frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(B)}=\frac{2 / 24}{6 / 24}=\frac{1}{3}\)
