Let ℓ 1 and ℓ 2 be the lines r → 1 = λ i ^ + j ^ + k ^ and r → 2 = j ^ - k ^ +…

Let 1 and 2 be the lines r1=λi^+j^+k^ and r2=j^-k^+μi^+k^, respectively, Let X be the set of all the planes H that contain the line 1. For a plane H, let dH denote the smallest possible distance between the points of 2 and H. Let H0 be a plane in X for which dH0 is the maximum value of dH as H varies over all planes in X.

Match each entry in List-I to the correct entries in List-II.

  List-I   List-II
P The value of dH0 is 1 3
Q The distance of the point 0, 1, 2 from H0 is 2 13
R The distance of origin from H0 is 3 0
S The distance of origin from the point of
intersection of planes y=z, x=1 and H0 is
4 2
    5 12

The correct option is

  1. P2 Q4 R5 S1
  2. P5 Q4 R3 S1
  3. P2 Q1 R3 S2
  4. P5 Q1 R4 S2

Solution

Given,

H0 will be the plane containing the line 1 and parallel to 2.

So, the normal vector of plane parallel to 1 and 2 is given by,

i^j^k^111101=j^1-j^1-1+k^-1=i^-k^

Hence, the equation of plane H0  will be,

H0 : x-z=C which passes through origin,

So,C=0

 H0 : x-z=0

Now solving,

P dH0=1 distance of point 0, 1, -1 from H.

d=0--12=12  P5

Q d=0-22=2  Q4

R d=02=0  R3

S Point of intersection will be of given planesy=z, x=1 & x-z=0  will be, 1, 1, 1 

Hence, distance d=1+1+1=3  S1

Option (B) is correct.
