Let L be the line with parametric equations x=2+t, y=1-t, z=1+3t.Let v=(1,2,0).Find vectors w1 and w2 such that v= w1 + w2, and such that w1 is parallel to L and w2 is perpendicular to L.

Answer:

w1 = (-1/11, 1/11, -3/11)

w2 = (12/11, 21/11, 3/11)

Step-by-step explanation:

Direction ratio of w1 = Direction ratio of L (because parallel) = K+(1, -1, 3)

Let <a,b,c> be direction ratio of w2.

Then, <a,b,c>. <1,-1,3> = 0

a-b+3c = 0

v = w1 + w2

(1, 2, 0) = k(1, -1, 3) + (a, b, c)

a + k = 1

b - K = 2

c - 3k = 0

Solving 4 equations, a = 12/11, b= 21/11, c = 3/11, k=-1/11

So, w1 = -1/11(1, -1 ,3) = (-1/11, 1/11, -3/11)

w2 = (12/11, 21/11, 3/11)
