3D Geometry 3 Question 64

64. A plane is parallel to two lines whose direction ratios are (1,0,1) and (1,1,0) and it contains the point (1,1,1). If it cuts coordinate axes at A,B,C. Then find the volume of the tetrahedron OABC.

Answer:

Correct Answer: 64. (i) x+y2z=3 (ii) Q(6,5,2)

Solution:

  1. Let the equation of plane through (1,1,1) having a,b,c as DR’s of normal to plane,

a(x1)+b(y1)+c(z1)=0

and plane is parallel to straight line having DR’s.

(1,0,1) and (1,1,0)

ac=0a+b=0a=b=c

Equation of plane is

x1+y1+z1=0 or x3+y3+z3=1

Its intercept on coordinate axes are

A(3,0,0),B(0,3,0),C(0,0,3)

Hence, the volume of tetrahedron OABC

=16[abcc]=16|300030003|=276=92 cu units
