Question

Equation of line in the plane  π  ≡  2x - y + z - 4 = 0 which is perpendicular to the  l  whose equation  is    and which passes through the point of intersection of  l  and  π  is 

Options

A.
B.
C.
D.

Solution

Let direction ratios of the line be a,b,c , then
    2a - b + c = 0
    a - b - 2c = 0
i.e. 
∴  direction ratios of the line are 3,5,-1
Any point on the line is (2 +  λ,  2  -  λ,  3  -  2λ).  It like on the plane  π  if
    2(2 + λ) - (2 - λ) + (3 - 2λ) = 4
i.e.  4 + 2λ - 2 + λ + 3 - 2λ = 4
i.e  λ  =  -  1
∴   The point of intersection of thye line and the plane is (1, 3, 5)
∴    equation of the required line is
