On which of the following lines lies the point of intersection of the line, \frac{x-4}{2} = \frac{y-5}{2} = \frac{z-3}{1} and the plane x + y + z = 2?

 

  • Option 1)

    \frac{x+3}{3} = \frac{4-y}{3} = \frac{z+1}{-2}

  • Option 2)

    \frac{x-4}{1} = \frac{y-5}{1} = \frac{z-5}{-1}

  • Option 3)

    \frac{x-2}{2} = \frac{y-3}{2} = \frac{z+3}{3}

  • Option 4)

    \frac{x-1}{1} = \frac{y-3}{2} = \frac{z+4}{-5}

Intersection of line and plane -

Let the line

\frac{x-x_{1}}{a}=\frac{y-y_{1}}{b}=\frac{z-z_{1}}{c} plane

a_{1}x+b_{1}y+c_{1}z+d=0 intersect at P

to find P assume general point on line as \left ( x_{1}+\lambda a_{1}y_{1} +\lambda b_{1}z_{1}+\lambda c_{1}\right )

now put it in plane to find \lambda,

a_{1}\left ( x_{1}+\lambda a \right )+b_{1}\left ( y_{1}+\lambda b \right )+c_{1}\left ( z_{1}+\lambda c \right )+d=0

-

General point on the given line 

\frac{x-4}{2}=\frac{y-5}{2}=\frac{z-3}{2}=\lambda

x=2\lambda +4

y=2\lambda +5

z=\lambda +3

This point lies on the plane x+y+z=2

So,

2\lambda +4+2\lambda +5+\lambda +3=2

5\lambda =-10

\lambda =-2

 


Option 1)

\frac{x+3}{3} = \frac{4-y}{3} = \frac{z+1}{-2}

Option 2)

\frac{x-4}{1} = \frac{y-5}{1} = \frac{z-5}{-1}

Option 3)

\frac{x-2}{2} = \frac{y-3}{2} = \frac{z+3}{3}

Option 4)

\frac{x-1}{1} = \frac{y-3}{2} = \frac{z+4}{-5}
