Detailed Solution

A line makes 90,135,45with x, y and z axes respectively.
Therefore, Direction cosines of the line are cos90,cos135 and cos45
 Direction cosines of the line are 0,12,12
Therefore, the direction cosines for line marks angle 90,135,45with the x, y and z axes respectively are 0,12,12.

OR

From the given information,  
Vector equation of a line which passes through a point (3,4,5) and parallel to the vector 2i^+2j^3k^ is
r=3i^+4j^+5k^+μ(2i^+2j^3k^)
Therefore, the vector equation of the line which passes through the point (3, 4, 5) and is parallel to the vector 2ı^+2ȷ^3k^ is r=3ı^+4ȷ^+5k^+μ(2ı^+2ȷ^3k^)
