The shortest distance from the plane 12x + y + 3z = 327 to the sphere x2 + y2 + z2 + 4x - 2y - 6z = 155 is

  • 13

  • 26

  • 39

  • 41413


A.

13

The given sphere is,

x2 + y2 + z2 + 4x - 2y - 6z = 155.

its centre is (-2, 1, 3) and radius = 4 + 1 + 9 + 155

                                                = 169 = 13

Therefore, the distance of centre (- 2, 1, 3) from the plane 12x + 4y + 3z = 327 is

12- 2 + 4(1) + 3(3) - 327144 + 16 + 9 = 26

Hence, the shortest distance = 26 - 13 = 13
