If a line makes angles \(90^{o},135^{o},45^{o}\)with the x, y and z-axes respectively, find its direction cosines. Sol: Let l, m, n be the direction cosines of the line. \(\therefore\) l =\(\cos 90^{o}=0\), m=\(\cos 135^{o}=\cos (90^{o} + 45^{o})=-\sin 45^{0}=-\frac{1}{\sqrt2}\) and n =\(\cos 45^{o}=\frac{1}{\sqrt2}\) So, the direction cosines are 0,\(-\frac{1}{\sqrt2}\),\(\frac{1}{\sqrt2}\) 2. Find the direction cosines of a line which makes equal angles with the coordinate axes . Sol: Let l,m and n be the direction cosines of the line. Since they make equal angles with the coordinate axes s...
