Marks: +1, -0
Find the angle between the planes whose vector equations are r(2i^+2j^3k^)=5\vec{r}\cdot(2\hat{i}+2\hat{j}-3\hat{k})=5 and r(3i^3j^+5k^)=3.\vec{r}\cdot(3\hat{i}-3\hat{j}+5\hat{k})=3.
Solution:  
If "θ’ be the angle between the planes rn1=d1\vec{r}\cdot\vec{n}_1=d_1 and rn2=d2\vec{r}\cdot\vec{n}_2=d_2 ,
then cosθ=n1n2n1n2\cos\theta=\left|\frac{\vec{n}_1\cdot\vec{n}_2}{|\vec{n}_1||\vec{n}_2|}\right|
Here n1=2i^+2j^3k^\vec{n}_1=2\hat{i}+2\hat{j}-3\hat{k} and n2=3i^3j^+5k^\vec{n}_2=3\hat{i}-3\hat{j}+5\hat{k}
cosθ=(2i^+2j^3k^)(3i^3j^+5k^)4+4+99+9+25\cos\theta=\left|\frac{(2\hat{i}+2\hat{j}-3\hat{k})\cdot(3\hat{i}-3\hat{j}+5\hat{k})}{\sqrt{4+4+9}\sqrt{9+9+25}}\right|
=151743=\left|\frac{-15}{\sqrt{17}\sqrt{43}}\right|
Hence θ=cos1151743\theta=\cos^{-1}\left|\frac{-15}{\sqrt{17}\sqrt{43}}\right| =cos1(15731)=\cos^{-1}\left(\frac{15}{\sqrt{731}}\right)
