Write the plane r .(2 i +3 j -6 k )=14 in normal form. - Vidyadip

Question

Write the plane $\vec{\text{r}}.(2\hat{\text{i}}+3\hat{\text{j}}-6\hat{\text{k}})=14$ in normal form.

✓

Answer

The given equation of the plane is
$\vec{\text{r}}.(2\hat{\text{i}}+3\hat{\text{j}}-6\hat{\text{k}})=14$ or $\vec{\text{r}}.\vec{\text{n}}=14$, where $\vec{\text{n}}=2\hat{\text{i}}+3\hat{\text{j}}-6\hat{\text{k}}$
$|\vec{\text{n}}|=\sqrt{4+9+36}=7$
For reducing the given equation to normal form, we need to divide it by $|\vec{\text{n}}|$.
Then, we get $\vec{\text{r}}.\frac{\vec{\text{n}}}{|\vec{\text{n}}|}=\frac{14}{|\vec{\text{n}}|}$
$=\vec{\text{r}}.\Big(\frac{2\hat{\text{i}}+3\hat{\text{j}}-6\hat{\text{k}}}{7}\Big)=\frac{14}{7}$
$\Rightarrow\vec{\text{r}}.\Big(\frac{2}{7}\hat{\text{i}}+\frac{3}{7}\hat{\text{j}}-\frac{6}{7}\hat{\text{k}}\Big)=2,$ which is the required normal form.
