32 Reflexive :|𝑎 − 𝑎| = 0, which is divisible by 4, ∀ 𝑎 ϵ 𝐴

∴(𝑎, 𝑎)∈𝑅, ∀ 𝑎 ϵ 𝐴∴ R is reflexive 1.5
Symmetric : Let (𝑎, 𝑏) ϵ 𝑅
⇒ |𝑎 − 𝑏| is divisible by 4
⇒ |𝑏 − 𝑎| is divisible by 4 (∵ |𝑎 − 𝑏| = |𝑏 − 𝑎|)
⟹(𝑏, 𝑎) ϵ 𝑅∴ R is symmetric
Transitive :Let (𝑎, 𝑏), (𝑏, 𝑐) ϵ 𝑅
⇒ |𝑎 − 𝑏|&|𝑏 − 𝑐| are divisible by 4 1.5
⇒𝑎 − 𝑏 = ±4𝑚, 𝑏 − 𝑐 = ±4𝑛, 𝑚, 𝑛 ϵ 𝑍
Adding we get, 𝑎 − 𝑐 = 4 (±𝑚±𝑛)
⇒ |𝑎 − 𝑐| is divisible by 4 ∴(𝑎, 𝑐)∈𝑅

35 Let P (1, 6, 3) be the given point, and let ' L' be the foot of the perpendicular from '
P ' to the given line AB (as shown in the figure below). The coordinates of a
general point on the given line are given by
 x-0 y-1 z-2
= = = λ,
1
1 2 3
λ is a scalar, i.e., x = λ, y = 2 λ + 1 and z = 3 λ + 2
Let the coordinates of L be (λ, 2 λ + 1, 3 λ + 2) .

So, direction ratios of PL are λ- 1, 2 λ + 1 - 6 and 3 λ + 2 - 3, i.e. λ- 1, 2 λ- 5 and 3

λ- 1.

Direction ratios of the given line are 1, 2 and 3, which is perpendicular to 1

PL .
Therefore, (λ- 1)1 + (2 λ- 5)2 + (3 λ- 1)3 = 0 => 14 λ- 14 = 0 => λ= 1
So, coordinates of L are (1, 3, 5).
Let Q ( x1 , y1 , z1 ) be the image of P (1,6, 3) in the given line. Then, L is the mid-point 1
of 1
PQ.
( x1 + 1) ( y1 + 6) (z1 + 3) 1
Therefore, = 1, = 3 and =5
2 2 2
=> x1 = 1, y1 = 0 and z1 = 7
Hence, the image of P (1,6, 3) in the given line is (1,0, 7).

Now, the distance of the point (1,0,7) from the y - axis is √12 + 72 =√50 units.
