MediumIf two lines are parallel to each other,then which of the following is true? (If $(l_1, m_1, n_1)$ and $(l_2, m_2, n_2)$ are direction cosines of the two lines).
- A$l_1 l_2 + m_1 m_2 + n_1 n_2 = 0$
- B$\Sigma(l_1 l_2 - m_2 m_1)^2 = 0$
- C$\frac{l_1}{l_2} = \frac{m_1}{m_2} = \frac{n_1}{n_2}$
- D$l_1 l_2 + m_1 m_2 + n_1 n_2 = 1$

Easy
View SolutionLet $P(x, y, z)$ be a point in the first octant,whose projection in the $xy$-plane is the point $Q$. Let $OP = \gamma$; the angle between $OQ$ and the positive $x$-axis be $\theta$; and the angle between $OP$ and the positive $z$-axis be $\phi$,where $O$ is the origin. Then the distance of $P$ from the $x$-axis is:
