If a line segment OP makes angles of with X-axis and Y-axis, respectively. Then, the direction cosines are
If a plane passing through the point (2, 2, 1) and is perpendicular to the planes 3x + 2y + 4z + 1 = 0 and 2x + y + 3z + 2 = 0. Then, the equation of the plane is
2x - y - z - 1 = 0
2x + 3y + z - 1 = 0
2x + y + z + 3 = 0
x - y + z - 1 = 0
A.
2x - y - z - 1 = 0
Equation of plane passes through (2, 2, 1) is
a(x - 2) + b(y - 2) + c(z - 1) = 0 ...(i)
Since, above plane is perpendicular to
3x + 2y + 4z + 1 = 0
and 2x + y + 3z + 2 = 0
3a + 2b + 4c = 0 ...(ii)
and 2a + b + 3c = 0 ...(iii)
[ for perpendicular, a1a2 + b1b2 + c1c2 = 0]
On multiplying Eq. (iii) by 2, we get
4a + 2b + 6c = 0 ...(iv)
On subtracting Eq. (iv) from Eq. (ii), we get
- a - 2c = 0
a = - 2c
c =
on putting c = in Eq. (iii), we get
On putting b = and c = in Eq. (i), we get
If the points (1, 2, 3) and (2, - 1, 0) lie on the opposite sides of the plane 2x + 3y - 2z = k, then
k < 1
k > 2
k < 1 or k > 2
1 < k < 2
