The direction cosines of the line passing through P(2, 3, -1) and the origin are |
$\frac{2}{\sqrt{14}}, \frac{3}{\sqrt{14}}, \frac{1}{\sqrt{14}}$ $\frac{2}{\sqrt{14}}, -\frac{3}{\sqrt{14}}, \frac{1}{\sqrt{14}}$ $\frac{2}{\sqrt{14}}, -\frac{2}{\sqrt{14}}, \frac{1}{\sqrt{14}}$ $\frac{2}{\sqrt{14}}, \frac{3}{\sqrt{14}}, -\frac{1}{\sqrt{14}}$ |
$\frac{2}{\sqrt{14}}, \frac{3}{\sqrt{14}}, -\frac{1}{\sqrt{14}}$ |
The direction cosines of OP are proportional to 2, 3, -1. So, directions of OP are: $\frac{2}{\sqrt{14}}, \frac{3}{\sqrt{14}}, -\frac{1}{\sqrt{14}}$ |
