### 2nd PUC Maths Three Dimensional Geometry NCERT Text Book Questions and Answers Ex 11.2

Question 1
Show that the three lines with direction cosines
$$\frac{12}{13}, \frac{-3}{13}, \frac{-4}{13} ; \frac{4}{13}, \frac{12}{13}, \frac{3}{13} ; \frac{3}{13}, \frac{-4}{13}, \frac{12}{13}$$ are mutually perpendicular
