Question

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

Point                 Plane

(2, 3, – 5)           x + 2y – 2z = 9

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 (2, 3, −5) and the plane is x + 2y – 2z = 9
