Answer:

(a)

Solution:

  1. Let the equation of plane is

ax+by+cz=d

Since plane (i) passes through the points (0,1,0) and (0,0,1), then b=d and c=d

Equation of plane becomes axdy+dz=d The plane (ii) makes an angle of π4 with the plane

yz+5=0.cosπ4=|dda2+d2+d21+1|

[ The angle between the two planes a1x+b1y+c1z+d=0 and a2x+b2y+c2z+d=0 is

cosθ=|a1a2+b1b2+c1c2a12+b12+c12a22+b22+c22|

12=|2d|a2+2d22a2+2d2=|d|

a2+2d2=4d2

[squaring both sides]

a2=2d2a=±2d

So, the Eq. (ii) becomes

±2xy+z=1

Now, from options (2,1,4) satisfy the plane

2xy+z=1
