Question 8 Find the equation of the plane with intercept 3 on the y-axis and parallel to ZOX plane. The equation of a plane with intercepts š, b, c on x, y, and z ā axis respectively is šļ·®šļ·Æ + šļ·®šļ·Æ + šļ·®šļ·Æ = 1 Given, The plane is parallel to ZOX plane as shown ā“ intercept on x ā axis = 0 So, š = 0 and Intercept on z axis = 0 So, š = 0 Given, Intercept on y axis = 3 So, š = 3 Equation of a plane š„ļ·®0ļ·Æ + š¦ļ·®3ļ·Æ + š§ļ·®0ļ·Æ = 1 0 + š¦ļ·®3ļ·Æ + 0 = 1 š¦ļ·®3ļ·Æ = 1 y = 3
