MCQ
If the points $(-1, 3, 2), (-4, 2, -2)$ and $(5,\,\,5,\,\,\lambda )$ are collinear, then $\lambda $=
  • A
    $-10$
  • B
    $5$
  • C
    $-5$
  • $10$

Answer

Correct option: D.
$10$
d
(d) $\frac{{ - 4 + 1}}{{5 + 4}} = \frac{{2 - 3}}{{5 - 2}} = \frac{{ - 2 - 2}}{{\lambda + 2}}$ or $\lambda + 2 = 12$ or $\lambda = 10$.

Consider system of equations in $x$ , $y$ and $z$

$12x + by + cz = 0$ ;   $ax + 24y + cz = 0$  ;   $ax + by + 36z = 0$ .
