Question

Solution

The equation of line  \[\frac{2x - 1}{4} = \frac{3y + 5}{2} = \frac{2 - z}{3}\]  can be re-written as \[\frac{x - \frac{1}{2}}{2} = \frac{y + \frac{5}{3}}{\frac{2}{3}} = \frac{z - 2}{- 3}\] 

The direction ratios of the line parallel to line  \[\frac{2x - 1}{4} = \frac{3y + 5}{2} = \frac{2 - z}{3}\] are proportional to 2, \[\frac{2}{3}\]   \[-3\] . Equation of the required line passing through the point ( -1, 2, 1) having direction ratios proportional to 2, \[\frac{2}{3}\]   \[-3\]  is

 \[\frac{x - \left( - 1 \right)}{2} = \frac{y - 2}{\frac{2}{3}} = \frac{z - 1}{- 3}\]

\[ = \frac{x + 1}{2} = \frac{y - 2}{\frac{2}{3}} = \frac{z - 1}{- 3}\]
