If \(P=(0,1,0), Q=(0,0,1)\), then the projection of \(P Q\) on the plane \(x+y+z=3\) is

  1. A \(2\)
  2. B \(\sqrt{2}\)
  3. C \(3\)
  4. D \(\sqrt{3}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(\sqrt{2}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Direction ratios of \(P Q\) \[ =(0-0,0-1,1-0)=(0,-1,1) \] Direction cosine \(=\left(|0|,\left|-\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}\right|,\left|\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}\right|\right)\) The given plane is \(x+y+z=3\) Direction ratios of the plane are \((1,1,1)\) Length of the projection…
