A direction vector of l l l is d = ( − 1 , 2 , 3 ) \mathbf d=(-1,2,3) d = ( − 1 , 2 , 3 ) , while O A → = ( 1 , 5 , 6 ) \overrightarrow{OA}=(1,5,6) O A = ( 1 , 5 , 6 ) .
Their scalar product is
O A → ⋅ d = − 1 + 10 + 18 = 27. \overrightarrow{OA}\cdot\mathbf d=-1+10+18=27. O A ⋅ d = − 1 + 10 + 18 = 27.
Their lengths are 62 \sqrt{62} 62 and 14 \sqrt{14} 14 . Hence
θ = cos − 1 27 62 14 ≈ 23.6 ∘ . \theta=\cos^{-1}\frac{27}{\sqrt{62}\sqrt{14}}
\approx\boxed{23.6^\circ}. θ = cos − 1 62 14 27 ≈ 23. 6 ∘ .

A general point on l l l is P = ( 4 − λ , 2 λ , 1 + 3 λ ) P=(4-\lambda,2\lambda,1+3\lambda) P = ( 4 − λ , 2 λ , 1 + 3 λ ) . Thus
A P → = ( 3 − λ , 2 λ − 5 , 3 λ − 5 ) . \overrightarrow{AP}=(3-\lambda,2\lambda-5,3\lambda-5). A P = ( 3 − λ , 2 λ − 5 , 3 λ − 5 ) .
For the perpendicular foot,
A P → ⋅ ( − 1 , 2 , 3 ) = 0. \overrightarrow{AP}\cdot(-1,2,3)=0. A P ⋅ ( − 1 , 2 , 3 ) = 0.
Therefore
− ( 3 − λ ) + 2 ( 2 λ − 5 ) + 3 ( 3 λ − 5 ) = 0 , -(3-\lambda)+2(2\lambda-5)+3(3\lambda-5)=0, − ( 3 − λ ) + 2 ( 2 λ − 5 ) + 3 ( 3 λ − 5 ) = 0 ,
so 14 λ − 28 = 0 14\lambda-28=0 14 λ − 28 = 0 and λ = 2 \lambda=2 λ = 2 . Hence
O P → = 2 i + 4 j + 7 k . \boxed{\overrightarrow{OP}=2\mathbf i+4\mathbf j+7\mathbf k}. O P = 2 i + 4 j + 7 k .

For P = ( 4 − λ , 2 λ , 1 + 3 λ ) P=(4-\lambda,2\lambda,1+3\lambda) P = ( 4 − λ , 2 λ , 1 + 3 λ ) ,
A P 2 = ( 3 − λ ) 2 + ( 2 λ − 5 ) 2 + ( 3 λ − 5 ) 2 = 14 λ 2 − 56 λ + 59 = 14 ( λ − 2 ) 2 + 3. \begin{align*}
AP^2
=&\,(3-\lambda)^2+(2\lambda-5)^2\\[4mm]
&\,\hspace{2pt}+(3\lambda-5)^2\\[4mm]
=&\,14\lambda^2-56\lambda+59\\[4mm]
=&\,14(\lambda-2)^2+3.
\end{align*} A P 2 = = = ( 3 − λ ) 2 + ( 2 λ − 5 ) 2 + ( 3 λ − 5 ) 2 14 λ 2 − 56 λ + 59 14 ( λ − 2 ) 2 + 3.
Equivalently,
d ( A P 2 ) d λ = 28 λ − 56 \dfrac{\mathrm{d}(AP^2)}{\mathrm{d}\lambda}=28\lambda-56 d λ d ( A P 2 ) = 28 λ − 56
and the second derivative is 28 > 0 28>0 28 > 0 .
The minimum occurs at λ = 2 \lambda=2 λ = 2 , so the foot has position vector
O P → = 2 i + 4 j + 7 k . \boxed{\overrightarrow{OP}=2\mathbf i+4\mathbf j+7\mathbf k}. O P = 2 i + 4 j + 7 k .

Let A ′ A' A ′ be the reflection of A A A in l l l . The perpendicular foot P P P from part (b) is the midpoint of A A ′ AA' A A ′ . Therefore
