Question

In the given cases, find the distance of each of the given points from the corresponding given plane.

Point                    Plane
(0, 0, 0)           3x – 4y + 12 z = 3

Answer 1

It is known that the distance between a point, p(x₁, y₁, z₁), and a plane, Ax + By + Cz = D, is given by,

The given point is (0, 0, 0) and the plane is 3x – 4y + 12 z = 3
