If the straight linesx 1 y 1 z 2 k 2andx 1 y 1 z 5 2 kare coplanar, then the plane (s)containing these two lines is (are) (A) y + 2z = 1 (B) y + z = 1 (C) y z = 1 (D) y 2z = 1 55A. `y+2z=-1`B. `y+z=-1`C. `y-z=-1`D. `y-2z=-1` |
Answer» Correct Answer - B::C PLAN If the straight lines are coplanar. They the should lie in same plane. Description of Situation If straight lines are coplanar. `implies" "|{:(x_(2)-x_(1),y_(2)-y_(1),z_(2)-z_(1)),(a_(1),b_(1),c_(1)),(a_(2),b_(2),c_(2)):}|=0` Since,`" "(x-1)/(2)=(y+1)/(K)=(z)/(2)` and`" "(x+1)/(5)=(y+1)/(2)=(z)/(k)` are coplanar. `implies" "|{:(2,0,0),(2,K,2),(5,2,K):}|=0impliesK^(2)=4impliesK=+-2` `:." "n_(1)=b_(1)xxd_(1)=6j-6k," for "k=2` `:." "n_(2)=b_(2)xxd_(2)=14j-14k," for "k=-2` So, equation of planes are `(r-a).n_(1)=0` `implies" "y-z=-1" and "(r-a).n_(2)=0` `implies" "y+z=-1` |
