\begin{aligned} & \mathrm{PA}=\mathrm{PB} \\ \Rightarrow & \mathrm{PA}^{2}=\mathrm{PB}^{2} \\ \Rightarrow &(\alpha-4)^{2}+(\beta+2)^{2}+(\gamma+3)^{2} \\ &=(\alpha-2)^{2}+(\beta-4)^{2}+(\gamma+1)^{2} \\ \Rightarrow &-4 \alpha+12 \beta-8 \gamma=-8 \\ \Rightarrow & 2 \mathrm{x}-6 \mathrm{y}+4 \mathrm{z}=4 \end{aligned}
