Mathematics Question on complex numbers
Let the equation of the plane passing through the line x−2y−z−5=0=x+y+3z−5 and parallel to the line x+y+2z−7=0=2x+3y+z−2 be ax+by+cz=65 Then the distance of the point (a,b,c) from the plane 2x+2y−z+16=0 is _______
Answer
The correct answer is 9.
Equation of plane is
(x−2y−z−5)+b(x+y+3z−5)=0
∣∣1+b12−2+b13−1+3b21∣∣=0
⇒b=12
∴ plane is 13x+10y+35z=65
Distance from given point to plane =9
