Solution

The direction ratios of the line which is perpendicular to the two lines `(x - 7)/(2) = (y + 17)/(-3) = (z - 6)/(1) and (x + 5)/(1) = (y + 3)/(2) = (z - 4)/(-2)` are 4, 5, 7.

Explanation:

`(x - 7)/(2) = (y + 17)/(-3) = (z - 6)/(1)`

`(x + 5)/(1) = (y + 3)/(2) = (z - 4)/(-2)`

The direction ratios of the given lines are proportional to 2, -3, 1 and 1, 2, -2.

The given lines are parallel to the vectors →

`vecb_1 = 2hati - 3hatj + hatk  and  vecb_2 = hati + 2hatj - 2 hatk`

The vector perpendicular to the given two lines is →

`vecb = vecb_1 xx vecb_2`

= `|(hati      hatj      hatk), (2 -3   1), (1   2 -2)|`

= `4hati + 5hatj + 7hatk`

Hence, the direction ratios of the line perpendicular to the given two lines are proportional to 4, 5, 7.
