If the foot of perpendicular drawn from the origin to the plane is \((3,2,1)\), then the equation of plane is
- A \(3x+2y-z=12\)
- B \(3x+2y-z=14\)
- C \(3x+2y+z=14\)
- D \(3x-2y-z=12\)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) \(3x+2y+z=14\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
(B)
Let \(P(3,2,1)\) be the foot of the perpendicular from the origin to the plane.
\(\begin{aligned}
\overline{\mathrm{OP}} &=\overline{\mathrm{n}}=3 \hat{\mathrm{i}}+2 \hat{\mathrm{j}}+\hat{\mathrm{k}} \text { and } \\
\mathrm{P} &=|3 \hat{\mathrm{i}}+2 \hat{\mathrm{j}}+\hat{\mathrm{k}}|=\sqrt{3^{2}+2^{2}+1^{2}}=\sqrt{14} \\
\hat{\mathrm{n}} &=\frac{3 \hat{\mathrm{i}}+2 \hat{\mathrm{j}}+\hat{\mathrm{k}}}{\sqrt{14}}
\end{aligned}\)
The vector equation of the plane is
\(\begin{aligned}
&(x \hat{i}+y \hat{j}+z \hat{k}) \cdot \frac{(3 \hat{i}+2 \hat{j}+\hat{k})}{\sqrt{14}}=\sqrt{14} \\
\therefore & 3 x+2 y+z=14 \Rightarrow 3 x+2 y+z-14=0
\end{aligned}\)
Let \(P(3,2,1)\) be the foot of the perpendicular from the origin to the plane.
\(\begin{aligned}
\overline{\mathrm{OP}} &=\overline{\mathrm{n}}=3 \hat{\mathrm{i}}+2 \hat{\mathrm{j}}+\hat{\mathrm{k}} \text { and } \\
\mathrm{P} &=|3 \hat{\mathrm{i}}+2 \hat{\mathrm{j}}+\hat{\mathrm{k}}|=\sqrt{3^{2}+2^{2}+1^{2}}=\sqrt{14} \\
\hat{\mathrm{n}} &=\frac{3 \hat{\mathrm{i}}+2 \hat{\mathrm{j}}+\hat{\mathrm{k}}}{\sqrt{14}}
\end{aligned}\)
The vector equation of the plane is
\(\begin{aligned}
&(x \hat{i}+y \hat{j}+z \hat{k}) \cdot \frac{(3 \hat{i}+2 \hat{j}+\hat{k})}{\sqrt{14}}=\sqrt{14} \\
\therefore & 3 x+2 y+z=14 \Rightarrow 3 x+2 y+z-14=0
\end{aligned}\)
