JEE Advanced 2007 · Introduction to Three Dimensional Geometry
Consider the planes 3x−6y−2z=15 and 2x+y−2z=5.
Statement - I : The parametric equations of the line of intersection of the given planes are x=3+14t, y=1+2t, z=15t
because
Statement - II : The vector 14i^+2j^+15k^ is parallel to the line of intersection of given planes.
Answer:D. Statement-I is False, Statement-II is True
Given: π1:3x−6y−2z=15,π2:2x+y−2z=5S-I: x=3+14t,y=1+2t,z=15tS-II: 14i^+2j^+15k^∥line of intersectionTo find: which option about S-I and S-II is correctPlan: direction=n1×n2⇒test S-II;point on line⇒test S-Iπ1⇒n1=(3,−6,−2)π2⇒n2=(2,1,−2)n1×n2=i^32j^−61k^−2−2=(14,2,15)∴14i^+2j^+15k^∥line⇒S-II is TRUEDirection of the line of intersection=(14,2,15)Set z=0:3x−6y=15,2x+y=5⇒x=3,y=−1⇒(3,−1,0)True line: x=3+14t,y=−1+2t,z=15tS-I uses (3,1,0):3(3)−6(1)−2(0)=3=15∴S-I is FALSES-I FALSE,S-II TRUE⇒option (4)(4)
