3D Geometry 3 Question 23

####23. On which of the following lines lies the point of intersection of the line, x42=y52=z31 and the plane, x+y+z=2 ?

(2019 Main, 10 Jan II)

(a) x41=y51=z51

(b) x+33=4y3=z+12

(c) x22=y32=z+33

(d) x11=y32=z+45

Show Answer

Answer:

(d)

Solution:

  1. Given equation of line is

x42=y52=z31=r( let )x=2r+4;y=2r+5 and z=r+3

General point on the line (i) is

P(2r+4,2r+5,r+3)

So, the point of intersection of line (i) and plane x+y+z=2 will be of the form P(2r+4,2r+5,r+3) for some rR.

(2r+4)+(2r+5)+(r+3)=2

[ the point will lie on the plane]

5r=10r=2

So, the point of intersection is P(0,1,1)

[putting r=2 in (2r+4,2r+5,r+3) ]

Now, on checking the options, we get

x11=y32=z+45 contain the point (0,1,1)
