Explain solution RD sharma class 12 chapter 28 The Plane exercise 28.8, question 18

Answers (1)

The answer of the given question are

  1. 13x+14y+11z=0, This plane doesn’t satisfies the given condition.
  2. The equation of the required plane is, 7x+11y+14z=15.
  3. The equation of the required plane is, 7x+11y+4z=33

Hint:-  By using intercept form of plane

            \frac{x}{a}+\frac{y}{b}+\frac{c}{z}=1

Given:-  The equation of the family of planes passing through the intersection of the planes

x+2y+3z-4=0 and 2x+y-z+5=0

Solution:- The equation of the family of planes passing through the intersection of the planes

        x+2y+3z-4=0 and 2x+y-z+5=0

               \left (x+2y+3z-4 \right )+k\left (2x+y-z+5 \right )=0, where k is some constant.

               (2k+1)x+(k+2)y+(3-k)z=4-5k\\ \frac{x}{\left (\frac{4-5k}{2k+1} \right )}+\frac{y}{\left (\frac{4-5k}{k+2} \right )}+\frac{z}{\left (\frac{4-5k}{3-k} \right )}

It is given that x-intercept of the required plane is twice its z intercept.

\left (\frac{4-5k}{2k+1} \right )+2\left (\frac{4-5k}{3-k} \right )\\

(4-5k)(3-k)=(4k+2)(4-5k)

(4-5k)(3-k-4k-2)=0

(4-5k)(1-5k)=0            

Either
             4-5k=0 \;\;\;or \;\;\;\;\; 1-5k=0\\ k=\frac{4}{5} \;\;\;\;\; or \;\;\;\;\; k=\frac{1}{5}

When k=\frac{4}{5}, the equation of the plane is

               \left (2 \times \frac{4}{5}+1 \right )x+\left (\frac{4}{5}+2 \right )y+\left ( 3-\frac{4}{5} \right )z=4-5\times \frac{4}{5}\\ 13x+14y+11z=0

This plane does not satisfies the given condition, so this is rejected

When k=\frac{1}{5} , the equation of the plane is

               \left (2 \times \frac{1}{5}+1 \right )x+\left (\frac{1}{5}+2 \right )y+\left ( 3-\frac{1}{5} \right )z=4-5\times \frac{1}{5}\\ 7x+11y+14z=15

Thus, the equation of the required plane is 7x+11y+14z=15

Also, the equation of the plane passing through the point (2,3,-1) and parallel to the plane 7x+11y+14z=15 is

7(x-2)+11(y-3)+14(z+1)=0\\ 7x+11y+4z=33
