Question
Equation of the plane containing the straight line
and perpendicular to the plane containing the straight lines
and
is
and perpendicular to the plane containing the straight lines
and
is Options
A.x - 2y + 2z + 5 = 0
B.3x + 2y - 2z = 0
C.x - 2y + z = 0
D.5x + 2y - 4z = 0
Solution
Plane 1: ax + by + cz = 0 contains line
∴ 2a + 3b + 4c = 0 ......(i)
Plane 2: a′x + b′y + c′z = 0 is perpendicular to plane containing lines
and 
∴ 3a′ + 4b′ + 2c′ = 0 and 4a′ + 2b′ + 3c′ = 0
⇒
⇒ 8a - b - 10c = 0 .......(ii)
From (i) and (ii)

⇒ Equation of plane x - 2y + z = 0.
∴ 2a + 3b + 4c = 0 ......(i)
Plane 2: a′x + b′y + c′z = 0 is perpendicular to plane containing lines
and 
∴ 3a′ + 4b′ + 2c′ = 0 and 4a′ + 2b′ + 3c′ = 0
⇒

⇒ 8a - b - 10c = 0 .......(ii)
From (i) and (ii)

⇒ Equation of plane x - 2y + z = 0.
