Question:

The ratio in which yz–plane divide the line joining the points A(3, 1, –5) and B(1, 4, –6) is

Options:

–3 : 1

3 : 1

–1 : 3

1 : 3

Correct Answer:

–3 : 1

Explanation:

A ≡ (3, 1, − 5), B ≡ (1, 4, − 6)

Therefore $\frac{3+\lambda}{\lambda+1}=0 \Rightarrow \lambda=-3$

Therefore required ratio is −3 : 1
