Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(\frac{1}{5 \sqrt{2}}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Here, intercepts made with the coordinate axes \(\mathrm{X}, \mathrm{Y}\) and \(\mathrm{Z}\) are \(\frac{1}{3}, \frac{1}{4}\) and \(\frac{1}{5}\) respectively. Intercept form of a plane is \(\frac{x}{a}+\frac{y}{b}+\frac{z}{c}=1\) We have,…
