Answer:

(b)

Solution:

  1. According to given information, we have the following figure.

From figure, it is clear that

(AB×BC)=p and n=2i^5j^+0k^

p=|i^j^k^4445αβ6|

[AB=(73)i^+(04)j^+(62)k^

=4i^4j^+4k^ and BC=(27)i^+(α0)j^+(β6)k^

=5i^+αj^+(β6)k^]

=i^(4β+244α)j^(4β24+20)+k^(4α20)

p=(244α4β)i^+j^(44β)+k^(4α20)

Now, as the planes are perpendicular, therefore pn=0

((244α4β)i^+(44β)j^+(4α20)k^)

(2i^5j^+0k^))=0

2(244α4β)5(44β)+0=0

8(6αβ)4(55β)=0

122α2β5+5β=02α3β=7
