Line L 1 is parallel to vector 
and passes through a point A(7, 6, 2) and line L 2 is parallel to a vector 
and passes through a point B(5, 3, 4). Now a line L 3 parallel to a vector 
intersects the lines L 1 and L 2 at points C and D respectively, then 
is equal to :
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
CHECK THE SOLUTION.
36
Sol. Equation of line L 1 is 
+ λ 
Equation of line L 2 is 
+ μ 
= 
+ λ 
– μ 
. since it is parallel to 
∴ 
= 
= 
∴ λ = 2 , μ = 1
∴ 
= 
∴ |4 
| = 36
