JEE Main & Advanced AIEEE Solved Paper-2002

  • question_answer
    The equation of the plane containing the line \[\frac{x-{{x}_{1}}}{l}=\frac{y-{{y}_{1}}}{m}=\frac{z-{{z}_{1}}}{n}\] is \[a(x-{{x}_{1}})+b(y-{{y}_{1}})+c(z-{{z}_{1}})=0\]              where   AIEEE  Solved  Paper-2002

    A) \[a{{x}_{1}}+b{{y}_{1}}+c{{z}_{1}}=0\]      

    B) \[al+bm+cn=0\]

    C)           \[\frac{a}{l}=\frac{b}{m}=\frac{c}{n}\]      

    D)           \[l\,{{x}_{1}}+m{{y}_{1}}+n{{z}_{1}}=0\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    The equation of plane containing the line                    \[\frac{x-{{x}_{1}}}{l}=\frac{y-{{y}_{1}}}{m}=\frac{z-{{z}_{1}}}{n}\]is \[a(x-{{x}_{1}})+b(y-{{y}_{1}})+c(z-{{z}_{1}})=0\], if                                    \[al+bm+cn=0\] Since, the normal to the plane is perpendicular to the given line. \[\therefore \]     \[al+bm+cn=0\]
