Find the equation of the plane through the intersection of the planes 3x – 4y + 5z =10 and 2x + 2y - 3z = 4 and parallel to the line x = 2y = 3z.
Equation of plane through the line of intersection of planes in Cartesian form is
(1)
For the standard equation of planes in Cartesian form
![]()
So, putting in equation (1), we have
3x – 4y + 5z -10 + λ(2x + 2y - 3z - 4)=0
(3 + 2λ)x + (-4 + 2λ)y + (5-3λ)z-10-4λ=0
Given line is parallel to plane then the normal of plane is perpendicular to line,
![]()
Where A1, B1, C1 are direction ratios of plane and A2, B2, C2 are of line.
(3 + 2λ).6 + (-4 + 2λ).3 + (5-3λ).2=0
18 + 12λ-12 + 6λ + 10-6λ=0
16 + 12λ=0

Putting the value of λ in equation (2)


x-20y + 27z-14=0
So, required equation of plane is x-20y + 27z-14=0.
