Question 14 (Method 1) Find the distance of the point (–1, –5, –10) from the point of intersection of the line 𝑟 ⃗ = 2𝑖 ̂ – 𝑗 ̂ + 2𝑘 ̂ + 𝜆 (3𝑖 ̂ + 4𝑗 ̂ + 2𝑘 ̂) and the plane 𝑟 ⃗ . (𝑖 ̂ – 𝑗 ̂ + 𝑘 ̂) = 5 .Given, the equation of line is 𝑟 ⃗ = (2𝑖 ̂ − 𝑗 ̂ + 2𝑘 ̂) + 𝜆 (3𝑖 ̂ + 4𝑗 ̂ + 2𝑘 ̂) and the equation of the plane is 𝑟 ⃗.(𝑖 ̂ − 𝑗 ̂ + 𝑘 ̂) = 5 To find point of intersection of line and plane, Putting value of 𝒓 ⃗ from equation of line into equation of plane.

(1𝑖 ̂ − 1𝑗 ̂ + 1𝑘 ̂) = 5 ["(2 + 3𝜆) " 𝑖 ̂" + (" −1" + 4𝜆) " 𝑗 ̂+(2+2"𝜆" )𝑘 ̂ ] . (1𝑖 ̂ − 1𝑗 ̂ + 1𝑘 ̂) = 5 (2 + 3𝜆) × 1 + (−1 + 4𝜆) × (−1) + (2 + 2𝜆) × 1 = 5 2 + 3𝜆 + 1 − 4𝜆 + 2 + 2𝜆 = 5 𝜆 + 5 = 5 𝜆 = 5 − 5 𝜆 = 0 So, the equation of line is 𝑟 ⃗ = (2𝑖 ̂ − 𝑗 ̂ + 2𝑘 ̂) + 𝜆 (3𝑖 ̂ + 4𝑗 ̂ + 2𝑘 ̂) 𝒓 ⃗ = 2𝒊 ̂ − 𝒋 ̂ + 2𝒌 ̂ Let the point of intersection be (x, y, z) So, 𝑟 ⃗ = x𝑖 ̂ + y𝑗 ̂ + z𝑘 ̂ x𝑖 ̂ + y𝑗 ̂ + z𝑘 ̂ = 2𝑖 ̂ − 𝑗 ̂ + 2𝑘 ̂ Hence, x = 2 , y = −1, z = 2 Therefore, the point of intersection is (2, −1, 2) Now, the distance between two points (𝑥_1, 𝑦_1, 𝑧_1) and (𝑥_2, 𝑦_2, 𝑧_2) is √((𝑥_2−𝑥_1 )^2 〖+ (𝑦_2−𝑦_1 )〗^2+ (𝑧_2−𝑧_1 )^2 ) Distance between (2, −1, 2) and (−1, −5, −10) = √((−1−2)^2 〖+ (−5+1)〗^2+ (−10−2)^2 ) = √((−3)^2 〖+ (−4)〗^2+ (−12)^2 ) = √(9+16+144) = √169 = 13.
