Question:

Let P be the plane √3x+2y+3z =16 and let and let S = {\(\alpha \hat{i}+\beta \hat{j}+\gamma\hat{k}:\alpha^2+\beta^2+\gamma^2=1\) and the distance of (α, β, γ) from the plane P is \(\frac{7}{2}\) }. Let u, v, and w be three distinct vectors in s such that |\(\vec{u}-\vec{v}\)| = |\(\vec{v}-\vec{w}\)| = |\(\vec{w}-\vec{u}\)|. Let V be the volume of the parallelepiped determined by vectors \(\vec{u},\vec{v},\vec{w}\). Then the value of \(\frac{80}{\sqrt3}\)V is

Plane

A  surface comprising all the straight lines that join any two points lying on it is called a plane in geometry. A plane is defined through any of the following uniquely:

  • Using three non-collinear points
  • Using a point and a line not on that line
  • Using two distinct intersecting lines
  • Using two separate parallel lines

Properties of a Plane:

  • In a three-dimensional space, if there are two different planes than they are either parallel to each other or intersecting in a line.
  • A line could be parallel to a plane, intersects the plane at a single point or is existing in the plane.
  • If there are two different lines that are perpendicular to the same plane then they must be parallel to each other.
  • If there are two separate planes which are perpendicular to the same line then they must be parallel to each other.
