Let the line passing through the points (−1,2,1) and parallel to the line 2x−1=3y+1=4z intersect the line 3x+2=2y−3=1z−4 at the point P. Then the distance of P from the point Q(4,−5,1) is :
(A)5
(B)10
(C)56
(D)55✓ Correct
Answer: (D)
Solution
The line through (−1,2,1) parallel to 2x−1=3y+1=4z (direction (2,3,4)) is
