Detailed Solution

The given relations between the direction ratios are l+m-n=0 and l2+m2n2=0

Suppose that n=1

l+m=1,l2+m2=1

Substitute m=1-l in the above equation

l2+1-l2=1l2+l2-2l=0l2-l=0ll-1=0

Therefore, the direction ratios are 0,1,1,1,0,1

Let θ be the acute angle between the lines then 

 cosθ=0+0+122 =12

Therefore, the measure of the angle between the given two lines is 60°
