Mathematics Question on Three Dimensional Geometry

Let θ\theta be the angle between the planes P1:r(i^+j^+2k^)=9P_1: \vec{r} \cdot(\hat{i}+\hat{j}+2 \hat{k})=9 and P2:r^(2i^j^+k^)=15P_2: \hat{r} \cdot(2 \hat{i}-\hat{j}+\hat{k})=15 Let LL be the line that meets P2P_2 at the point (4,2,5)(4,-2,5) and makes an angle θ\theta with the normal of P4P_4 If α\alpha is the angle between LL and P2P_2, then (tan2θ)(cot2α)\left(\tan ^2 \theta\right)\left(\cot ^2 \alpha\right) is equal to

Answer

The correct answer is 9.

cosθ=6(i^+j^​+2k^)⋅(2i^−j^​+k^)​=62−1+2​=21​
θ=π/3
α=π/6
(tan2θ)(cot2α)
(3)(3)=9
