$θ=2tan^{-1}⁡\left|\frac{a_1 a_2+b_1 b_2+c_1 c_2}{\sqrt{a_1^2+b_1^2+c_1^2} \sqrt{a_2^2+b_2^2+c_2^2}}\right |$

TuteeHUB · Answer

$θ=cos^{-1}⁡\left|\frac{a_1 a_2+b_1 b_2+c_1 c_2}{\sqrt{a_1^2+b_1^2+c_1^2} \sqrt{a_2^2+b_2^2+c_2^2}}\right |$

$θ=2 \,cos^{-1}⁡\left|\frac{a_1 a_2+b_1 b_2+c_1 c_2}{\sqrt{a_1^2+b_1^2+c_1^2} \sqrt{a_2^2+b_2^2+c_2^2}}\right |$

1.	If L1 and L2 have the direction ratios \(a_1,b_1,c_1 \,and \,a_2,b_2,c_2\) respectively then what is the angle between the lines?
A.	\(θ=tan^{-1}⁡\left\|\frac{a_1 a_2+b_1 b_2+c_1 c_2}{\sqrt{a_1^2+b_1^2+c_1^2} \sqrt{a_2^2+b_2^2+c_2^2}}\right \|\)
B.	\(θ=2tan^{-1}⁡\left\|\frac{a_1 a_2+b_1 b_2+c_1 c_2}{\sqrt{a_1^2+b_1^2+c_1^2} \sqrt{a_2^2+b_2^2+c_2^2}}\right \|\)
C.	\(θ=cos^{-1}⁡\left\|\frac{a_1 a_2+b_1 b_2+c_1 c_2}{\sqrt{a_1^2+b_1^2+c_1^2} \sqrt{a_2^2+b_2^2+c_2^2}}\right \|\)
D.	\(θ=2 \,cos^{-1}⁡\left\|\frac{a_1 a_2+b_1 b_2+c_1 c_2}{\sqrt{a_1^2+b_1^2+c_1^2} \sqrt{a_2^2+b_2^2+c_2^2}}\right \|\)
