If the foot of the perpendicular from `O(0,0,0)` to a plane is `P(1,2,2)`. Then the equation of the plane isA. `-x+2y+8z-9=0`B. `x+2y+2z-9=0`C. `x+y+z-5=0`D. `x+2y-3z+1=0`

Answer» Correct Answer - B
The plane passes through `P(1,2,2)` and is normal to
`vec(OP)=hati+2hatj+2hatk`. So its vector equation is
`vecr.vec(OP)=(hati+2hatj+2hatk).vec(OP)` [ Using `vecr.vecn=veca.vecn`]
`impliesvecr.(hati+2hatj+2hatk)=(hati+2hatj+2hatk).(hati+2hatj+2hatk)`
`impliesvecr.(hati+2hatj+hatk)=9impliesx+2y+2z=9`
