Find the equation of the plane through the intersection of the planes 3x – y + 2z – 4 = 0 and x + y + z – 2 = 0 and the point (2, 2, 1).
Solution:
The given planes are3x – y + 2z – 4 = 0 ...(1)and x + y + z – 2 = 0 ...(2)Any plane through the intersection of (1) and (2) is(3x – y + 2z – 4) + k (x + y + z – 2) = 0 ...(3)Since it passes through (2, 2, 1).∴ (6 – 2 + 2 – 4) + k (2 + 2 + 1 – 2) = 0Putting in (3), we get, ⇒ 9x – 3y + 6z – 12 – 2x – 2y – 2z + 4 = 0⇒ 7x – 5y + 4z – 8 = 0, which is the required equation.
