Mark the correct alternative in the following:
The equation of the plane parallel to the lines x – 1 = 2y – 5 = 2z and 3x = 4y – 11 = 3z – 4 and passing through the point (2, 3, 3) is
The required plane is parallel to the lines
x–1=2y–5=2z and 3x=4y–11=3z–4.
Equation of the lines can be re - written as,
![]()

And,
![]()

So, we have the straight lines as,
![]()
![]()
And,
![]()
![]()
We have the normal vector of the plane as,
![]()

![]()
![]()
![]()
So, the equation of plane is
, where
[∵the plane passes through the point (2, 3, 3)]
![]()
![]()
![]()
![]()

![]()
x - 4y + 2z= - 4
x - 4y + 2z + 4=0
The equation of the plane parallel to the lines
x–1=2y–5=2z and 3x=4y–11=3z–4 and passing through the point (2, 3, 3) is x–4y + 2z + 4=0
