MCQ

A plane passing through (−1, 2, 3) and whose normal makes equal angle with the coordinate axes is:

A
x + y + z + 4 = 0
B
x − y + z + 4 = 0
C
x + y + z − 4 = 0
D
x + y + z = 0

✓

Answer

x + y + z − 4 = 0

Solution:

Since normal makes equal angles with coordinate axis.

So, it intercept with all the axis will be same. So equation of plane will be

$\frac{\text{x}}{\text{a}}+\frac{\text{y}}{\text{a}}+\frac{\text{x}}{\text{a}}=1$

⇒ x + y + z = a

Now, it passes through (−1, 2, 3), so

−1 + 2 + 3 = a

⇒ a = 4

⇒ x + y + z − 4 = 0
