Please solve RD Sharma class 12 chapter 28 The Plane exercise Fill in the blank question 13 maths textbook solution
Answer:
-9
Hint:
Use direction ratios
Given:
Solution:
Let the given line is
Direction ratios are λ,1,-4
And the given plane 2x+ 2y - 8z = -5
Its direction ratios are 2,2,-4
And the given line and plane are perpendicular, then
λ(1) + 1(1) + (-4)(-8) = 0
2λ + 2 + 16=0
λ = -9
