Marks: +1, -0
Find the equation of the plane which contains the line of intersection of the planes r(i^+2j^+3k^)4=0\vec{r}\cdot(\hat{i}+\hat{2j}+\hat{3k})-4=0 and r(2i^+j^k^)+5=0\vec{r}\cdot(\hat{2i}+ \hat{j}- \hat{k})+5=0 which is perpendicular to the plane r(5i^+3j^6k^)+8=0.\vec{r}\cdot(\hat{5i}+\hat{3j}-\hat{6k})+8=0 .
Solution:  
The given planes are r(i^+2j^+3k^)4=0\vec{r}\cdot(\hat{i}+\hat{2j}+\hat{3k})-4=0 , r(2i^+j^k^)+5=0\vec{r}\cdot(\hat{2i}+ \hat{j}- \hat{k})+5=0 and r(5i^+3j^6k^)+8=0\vec{r}\cdot(\hat{5i}+\hat{3j}-\hat{6k})+8=0
Putting r=xi^+yj^+zk^\vec{r}= \hat{xi}+\hat{yj}+\hat{zk}, we get
x + 2y + 3z – 4 = 0 ...(1)
2x + y – z + 5 = 0 ...(2)
and 5x + 3y – 6z + 8 = 0 ...(3)
Any plane through the intersection of (1) and (2) is
(x + 2y + 3z – 4) + k (2x + y – z + 5) = 0
⇒ (1 + 2k)x + (2 + k) y + (3 – k)z + (–4 + 5k) = 0 ...(4)
Now plane (4) is perpendicular to plane (3), we get
∴ 5 (1 + 2k) + 3 (2 + k) – 6 (3 – k) = 0
⇒ 5 + 10k + 6 + 3k – 18 + 6k = 0
⇒ 19k – 7 = 0 ⇒ k = 7/19
Putting in (4), we get, 33x + 45y + 50z – 41 = 0,
which is the required equation of the plane.
