A) \[|(\mathbf{c}-\mathbf{b})\times \mathbf{a}|\div |\mathbf{a}|\]
B) \[|(\mathbf{c}-\mathbf{a})\times \mathbf{b}|\div |\mathbf{b}|\]
C) \[|(\mathbf{a}-\mathbf{b})\times \mathbf{c}|\div |\mathbf{c}|\]
D) \[|(\mathbf{a}-\mathbf{b})\times \mathbf{c}|\div |\mathbf{a}+\mathbf{c}|\]
Correct Answer: B
Solution :
For point \[P\] on the line \[r=\mathbf{a}+t\mathbf{b}\] \[\therefore \,\,\,\overrightarrow{PC}=(\mathbf{c}-\mathbf{a})-t\mathbf{b}\], \[\because \,\,\,\overrightarrow{PC}\,\bot \,\mathbf{b}\] \[\therefore \,\,\,|(\mathbf{c}-\mathbf{a})-t\mathbf{b}|\,.\,\mathbf{b}=0\] or \[t=\frac{(\mathbf{c}-\mathbf{a})\,.\,\mathbf{b}}{{{\mathbf{b}}^{2}}}\] ?..(i) Distance of \[\mathbf{c}\] from line \[|\overrightarrow{PC}|\ =\]\[d=|\mathbf{c}-\mathbf{a}-t\mathbf{b}|\] \[d=\left| \mathbf{c}-\mathbf{a}-\frac{(\mathbf{c}-\mathbf{a})\,.\,\mathbf{bb}}{{{\mathbf{b}}^{2}}} \right|=\left| \frac{(\mathbf{c}-\mathbf{a})\,\mathbf{b}\,.\,\mathbf{b}-(\mathbf{c}-\mathbf{a})\,.\,\mathbf{bb}}{{{\mathbf{b}}^{2}}} \right|\] \[d=\left| \frac{\mathbf{b}\times (\mathbf{c}-\mathbf{a})\times \mathbf{b}}{{{\mathbf{b}}^{2}}} \right|=\frac{|\mathbf{b}||(\mathbf{c}-\mathbf{a})\times \mathbf{b}|\sin 90{}^\circ }{|\mathbf{b}{{|}^{2}}}\], \[(\because \,\mathbf{b}\,\bot \,(\mathbf{c}-\mathbf{a})\times \mathbf{b})\] \[d=\frac{|(\mathbf{c}-\mathbf{a})\times \mathbf{b}|}{|\mathbf{b}|}\].You need to login to perform this action.
