Question

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

Point              Plane

(– 6, 0, 0)        2x – 3y + 6z – 2 = 0

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 (−6, 0, 0) and the plane is 2x – 3y + 6z – 2 = 0
