उत्तर
`\text{ The normal is passing through the points} \text{ A }(4, -1, 2) and \text{ B }(-10, 5, 4). So, `
`\vec{n} = \vec{AB} = \vec{OB} - \vec{OA} =( \text{ -10 }\hat{ i } +\text{ 5 } \hat{ j } + 4\hat{ k }) - ( 4\hat{ i }- \hat{ j }+ \text{ 2 } \hat{ j } ) = - \text{ 14} \hat{ j } + \text{ 6} \hat{ j } + \text{2 }\hat{ j } `
`\text{ Since the plane passes through } (-10, 5, 4), \vec{a} = \text{- 10} \hat{ i } +\text{ 5 } \hat{ j } + \text{ 4} \hat{ k } `
` \text{ We know that the vector equation of the plane passing through a point } \vec {a} \text{ and normal to } \vec{n} \text{ is } `
\[ \vec{r} . \vec{n} = \vec{a} . \vec{n} \]
`\text{ Substituting }\vec{a} = -\text{ 10 } \hat{ i } +\text{ 5 } \hat{ j } + \text{ 4 } \hat{ k } and \vec{n} = -\text{ 14 }\hat{ i } +\text{ 6 } \hat{ j } +\text{ 2 } \hat{ k } ,\text{ we get }`
` \vec{r} . ( - \text{ 14 }\hat{ i } + \text{ 6 } \hat{ j } + \text{ 2 } \hat{ k } ) = ( -\text{ 10 } \hat{ i } +\text{ 5 } \hat{ j } +\text{ 4 } \hat{ k } ) . ( - \text{ 14 } \hat{ i } + \text{ 6 } \hat{ j } + \text{ 2 } \hat { k }) `
` ⇒ \vec{r} .( \text{- 14 } \hat{ i } + \text{ 6 } \hat{ j } +\text{ 2 } \hat{ k } ) = 140 + 30 + 8 `
` ⇒ \vec{r} . (2 ( \text{ 7 } \hat{ i } + \text{ 3 } \hat{ j } + \hat{ k }) ) = 178 `
` ⇒ \vec{r} . ( \text{ 7 } \hat{ i } + \text{ 3 } \hat{ j } + \hat{ k } ) = 89`
`\text{ Substituting } \vec{r} = \text{ x } \hat{ i } + \text{ y } \hat{ i } + \text{ z}\hat{k } \text{ in the vector equation, we get }`
` ( \text{ x } \hat{ i } + \text{ y } \hat{ i } + \text{ z}\hat{k } ). \( \text{ 7 } \hat{ i } + \text{ 3 } \hat{ j } + \hat{ k } ) = 89`
\[ \Rightarrow 7x - 3y - z = - 89\]
\[ \Rightarrow 7x - 3y - z + 89 = 0\]
\[\]
\[\]
