उत्तर

Let D be the foot of the perpendicular drawn from the point (1, 0, 3) to the line BC.
 The coordinates of a general point on the line BC are given by 

\[\frac{x - 4}{4 - 3} = \frac{y - 7}{7 - 5} = \frac{z - 1}{1 - 3} = \lambda\]

\[ \Rightarrow x = \lambda + 4\]

\[ y = 2\lambda + 7 \]

\[ z = - 2\lambda + 1\]

Let the coordinates of D be 

\[\left( \lambda + 4, 2\lambda + 7, - 2\lambda + 1 \right)\]

The direction ratios of AD are proportional to

\[\lambda + 4 - 1, 2\lambda + 7 - 0, - 2\lambda + 1 - 3, i . e . \lambda + 3, 2\lambda + 7, - 2\lambda - 2\]

The direction ratios of the line BC are proportional to 1, 2,-2, but AD is perpendicular to the line BC.  

\[\therefore 1\left( \lambda + 3 \right) + 2\left( 2\lambda + 7 \right) - 2\left( - 2\lambda - 2 \right) = 0\]

\[ \Rightarrow \lambda = - \frac{7}{3}\] 

Substituting 

\[ \Rightarrow \lambda = - \frac{7}{3}\]  in  

\[\left( \lambda + 4, 2\lambda + 7, - 2\lambda + 1 \right)\]  we get the coordinates of D as  \[\left( \frac{5}{3}, \frac{7}{3}, \frac{17}{3} \right)\] .
