Q.

Match List-I with List-II and select the correct answer using the code given below the list.

 COLUMN-I COLUMN-II
A)If the length of any edge of a regular tetrahedron is 1 unit then the distance (in units) of any vertex from the opposite face is P)13
B)If the length of any edge of a regular tetrahedron is 1 unit and θ is the angle between any edge and a face not containing that edge then cosθ  is equal to Q)122
C)The edges of a parallelepiped are of unit length and are parallel to non-coplanar unit vectors  a,b,c such that  a.b=b.c=c.a=12. Then the volume of the parallelepiped (in cubic units) isR)12
D)

If   θ is the acute angle between the lines x = 2t – 2, y = 3 – 4t, z = t – 4 and x = – 2 – t,

Detailed Solution

Let ABCO be a tetrahedron where O is origin and P vs of A, B, C are  a,b,c respectively Let m be the p. v. of the foot of perpendicular from origin to face ABC.
 m=λ(ba)×(ca) m=λ(a×b+b×c+c×a).........................................(1)
The equation of plane ABC is  (ra).(ba)×(ca)=0
Which gives  m.(a×b+b×c+c×a)=[abc]
Taking dot product with  (a×b+b×c+c×a) both sides of (1)
 [abc]=λ|a×b+b×c+c×a|212=λ,34
 λ=223|m|=223×32=23
Let  α  be the angle between edge OA and normal to face ABC.
cosα=a.(ba)×(ca)|a||(ba)×(ca)|=[abc]|a×b+b×c+c×a|=23 
So, angle between edge OA and face ABC is π2cos123
i. e.  θ=sin123          sinθ=23cosθ=13
(C)  [abc]2=|112121211212121|=12
Volume of the parallelepiped  =12 cubic units
(D)   cosθ=721×14=16
