Q.

If two lines L1 and L2 in space, are defined by
L1={x=λy+(λ1),z=(λ1)y+λ} and L2={x=μy+(1μ),z=(1μ)y+μ}
Then L1 is perpendicular to L2 , for all non-negative reals λ and μ such that:

Detailed Solution

For L1
x=λy+(λ1)y=x(λ1)λ(i)z=(λ1)y+λy=zλλ1(ii)
From (i) and (ii)x(λ1)λ=y01=zλλ1
The equation (i) and (ii) is the equation of line L1
Similarly equation of line L2 is x(1μ)μ=y01=zμ1μ
Since L1L2, therefore
λμ+1×1+(λ1)(1μ)=0λ+μ=0λ=μλ=μ
