Mathematics Question on Three Dimensional Geometry
Let θ be the angle between the planes P1:r⋅(i^+j^+2k^)=9 and P2:r^⋅(2i^−j^+k^)=15 Let L be the line that meets P2 at the point (4,−2,5) and makes an angle θ with the normal of P4 If α is the angle between L and P2, then (tan2θ)(cot2α) 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
