Misc 3 If the lines (๐‘ฅ โˆ’ 1)/( โˆ’ 3) = (๐‘ฆ โˆ’ 2)/2๐‘˜ = (๐‘ง โˆ’ 3)/2 and (๐‘ฅ โˆ’ 1)/3๐‘˜ = (๐‘ฆ โˆ’ 1)/1 = (๐‘ง โˆ’ 6)/( โˆ’ 5) are perpendicular, find the value of k. Two lines (๐‘ฅ โˆ’ ๐‘ฅ1)/( ๐‘Ž1) = (๐‘ฆ โˆ’๐‘ฆ1)/๐‘1 = (๐‘ง โˆ’ ๐‘ง1)/๐‘1 and (๐‘ฅ โˆ’ ๐‘ฅ2)/( ๐‘Ž2) = (๐‘ฆ โˆ’ ๐‘ฆ2)/๐‘2 = (๐‘ง โˆ’ ๐‘ง2)/๐‘2 are perpendicular to each other if ๐’‚๐Ÿ ๐’‚๐Ÿ + ๐’ƒ๐Ÿ ๐’ƒ๐Ÿ + ๐’„๐Ÿ ๐’„๐Ÿ = 0 (๐’™ โˆ’ ๐Ÿ)/( โˆ’ ๐Ÿ‘) = (๐’š โˆ’ ๐Ÿ)/( ๐Ÿ๐’Œ) = (๐’› โˆ’ ๐Ÿ‘)/( ๐Ÿ) Comparing with (๐‘ฅ โˆ’ ๐‘ฅ1)/( ๐‘Ž1) = (๐‘ฆโˆ’ ๐‘ฆ1)/( ๐‘1) = (๐‘งโˆ’ ๐‘ง1)/( ๐‘1) x1 = 1, y1 = 2, z1 = 3 & ๐’‚๐Ÿ = โˆ’3, b1 = 2k c1 = 2 (๐’™ โˆ’ ๐Ÿ)/( ๐Ÿ‘๐’Œ) = (๐’š โˆ’ ๐Ÿ)/( ๐Ÿ) = (๐’› โˆ’ ๐Ÿ”)/( โˆ’ ๐Ÿ“) Comparing with (๐‘ฅ โˆ’ ๐‘ฅ2)/( ๐‘Ž2) = (๐‘ฆ โˆ’ ๐‘ฆ2)/( ๐‘2) = (๐‘ง โˆ’ ๐‘ง2)/( ๐‘2), ๐‘ฅ2 = 1, y2 = 1, z2 = 6 & ๐’‚๐Ÿ = 3k, b2 = 1, c2 = โˆ’5, Since the two lines are perpendicular, ๐‘Ž1 ๐‘Ž2 + ๐‘1 ๐‘2 + c1๐‘2 = 0 (โˆ’3 ร— 3k) + (2k ร— 1) + (2 ร— โˆ’ 5) = 0 โˆ’ 9k + 2k โˆ’ 10 = 0 โˆ’ 7k = 10 k = (โˆ’๐Ÿ๐ŸŽ)/๐Ÿ• Therefore, k = (โˆ’10)/7
