Question

The equation of the plane that passes through (1, -1 2) and has direction ratios (1, 2, 3) is:

A.

2x+y+3z=52x+y+3z=5 ​​

B.

x+2y+3z=5x+2y+3z=5 ​​

C.

x+3y+2z=5x + 3y+2z = 5 ​​

D.

3x+2y+2z=53x + 2y + 2z = 5 ​​

Correct option is B

Given:Point on the plane: (x0,y0,z0)=(1,1,2)Normal vector to the plane: n=(1,2,3) General equation of a plane:a(xx0)+b(yy0)+c(zz0)=0Substitute:1(x1)+2(y+1)+3(z2)=0Simplify:(x1)+2y+2+3z6=0x+2y+3z5=0\begin{aligned}&\textbf{Given:} \\&\text{Point on the plane: } (x_0, y_0, z_0) = (1, -1, 2) \\&\text{Normal vector to the plane: } \vec{n} = (1, 2, 3) \\\\&\text{ \quad \textbf{General equation of a plane:}} \\&a(x - x_0) + b(y - y_0) + c(z - z_0) = 0 \\\\&\text{Substitute:} \\&1(x - 1) + 2(y + 1) + 3(z - 2) = 0 \\\\&\text{Simplify:} \\&(x - 1) + 2y + 2 + 3z - 6 = 0 \\&x + 2y + 3z - 5 = 0\end{aligned}​​
