Need solution for RD Sharma maths class 12 chapter The Plane exercise 28.4 question 11

Answers (1)

Answer:

 \frac{6}{\sqrt{29}}

Hint:

 You must know the rules of solving vector functions

Given:

 Find the distance of the plane 2x - 3y + 4z - 6 = 0 from the origin

Solution:

We have

\begin{aligned} &2x-3y+4z-6=0\\ &2x-3y+4=6 \qquad \qquad \dots (1)\\ &\vec{r}(2\hat{i}-3\hat{j}+4\hat{k})=6 \end{aligned}

Now,

\begin{aligned} &\left | \vec{n} \right |=\sqrt{(2)^2+(-3)^2+(4)^2}\\ &=\sqrt{4+9+16}\\ &=\sqrt{29} \end{aligned}

Divide equation (1) by \begin{aligned} &\sqrt{29} \end{aligned}

We get,

\begin{aligned} &\frac{2}{\sqrt{29}}x-\frac{3}{\sqrt{29}}y+\frac{4}{\sqrt{29}}z=\frac{6}{\sqrt{29}} \end{aligned}

Which is the normal of the plane

Therefore the length of perpendicular from the origin to the plane is

\begin{aligned} &\frac{6}{\sqrt{29}} \end{aligned}
