Answers (1)

Answer:

 3 units

Hint:

 d=\left | \frac{ax_1+by_1+cz_1+d}{\sqrt{a^2+b^2+c^2}} \right |

Given:

 2x - 3y + 6z + 21 = 0

Solution:

 2x - 3y + 6z + 21 = 0            ......(i)

Point of origin (0,0,0)

Distance of plane (i) from (0,0,0)

\begin{aligned} &d=\left | \frac{ax_1+by_1+cz_1+d}{\sqrt{a^2+b^2+c^2}} \right |\\ &d=\left | \frac{2\times 0+3\times 0+6\times 0+21}{\sqrt{2^2+(-3)^2+6^2}} \right |\\ &d=\left | \frac{21}{\sqrt{49}} \right |\\ &d=\left | \frac{21}{7} \right |\\ &d=3 \end{aligned}
