Line through and parallel to the line
A particle is traveling along the line (x-3)/2=(y+1)/(-2)=z-1. Write the equation of its path in the form . Find the distance of closest approach of the particle to the origin (that is, the distance from the origin to the line). If t represents time, show that the time of closest approach is . Use this value to check your answer for the distance of closest approach. Hint: See Figure 5.3. If P is the point of closest approach, what is ?

Show that an orthogonal matrix M with all real eigenvalues is symmetric. Hints: Method 1. When the eigenvalues are real, so are the eigenvectors, and the unitary matrix which diagonalizes M is orthogonal. Use (11.27). Method 2. From Problem 46, note that the only real eigenvalues of an orthogonal M are ±1. Thus show that . Remember that M is orthogonal to show that .
