Let foot be P=(1+3t,2−2t,−1+3t).
Direction of line: (3,−2,3).
OP⋅d=0:
3(1+3t)−2(2−2t)+3(−1+3t)=0
3+9t−4+4t−3+9t=0
22t−4=0⇒t=112.
Foot: (1117,1118,11−5).
Note: We have interpreted 'root of perpendicular' as 'foot of perpendicular'.
Find the root of perpendicular from origin to the line x - 1 3 = y - 2 -2 = z + 1 3.
