JEE Mains · Maths · STD 12 - 11. three dimension geometry

If the points \((1, 1, \lambda )\) and \((-3, 0, 1)\) are equidistant from the plane, \(3x + 4y - 12z + 13 = 0,\) then \(\lambda \) satisfies the equation

  1. A \(3x^2 +10x - 13 =0\)
  2. B \(3x^2 -10x+21=0\)
  3. C \(3x^2 - 10x+7 =0\)
  4. D \(3x^2+10x - 7=0\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(3x^2 - 10x+7 =0\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(|3+4-12 \lambda+13|=|-9+0-12+13|\) \(\Rightarrow|-12 \lambda+20|=|8|\) \(\Rightarrow|3 \lambda-5|=2\) \(\Rightarrow 9 \lambda^{2}+25-30 \lambda=4\) \(\Rightarrow 9 \lambda^{2}-30 \lambda+21=0\) \(\Rightarrow 3 \lambda^{2}-10 \lambda+7=0\)
