The equation of perpendicular from the point \((1,0,1)\) to the plane \(x-y+z=4\) is

  1. A \(\frac{x-1}{2}=\frac{y}{-1}=\frac{z-1}{2}\)
  2. B \(\frac{x-1}{1}=\frac{y}{-1}=\frac{z-1}{1}\)
  3. C \(\frac{x-1}{1}=\frac{y-3}{-1}=\frac{z-2}{1}\)
  4. D \(\frac{x-1}{2}=\frac{y}{1}=\frac{z-1}{3}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(\frac{x-1}{1}=\frac{y}{-1}=\frac{z-1}{1}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Direction ratios of normal to plane \(x-y+z=4\) are \((1, -1, 1)\). Equation of line passing through \((1,0,1)\) with direction ratios \((1, -1, 1)\) is \(\frac{x-1}{1} = \frac{y-0}{-1} = \frac{z-1}{1}\). \(\frac{x-1}{1} = \frac{y}{-1} = \frac{z-1}{1}\).
