Solution

Given lines are x = y, z = 0 and x + y = 0, z = 0.

It is clear that (0, 0, 0) satisfies both the equations.

 the lines intersect at O whose position vector is `bar"0"`

Since z = 0 fr both the lines, both the lines ie in XY-plane.

Hence, we have to find equation oXY-ane.

Z-axis is perpendicular to XY-plane.

∴ normal to XY plane is `hat"k"`.

`"O"(bar"0")` lies on the plane.

By using `bar"r".bar"n" = bar"a".bar"n"`, vecttor equation of the required plane is `bar"r".hat"k" = bar"0".bar"k"`

i.e. `bar"r".hat"k"` = 0.

Hence, the given lines intersect each other and the vector equation of the plane determine by them is `bar"r".hat"k"` = 0.
