If vec n is a vector of magnitude sqrt(...

If ` vec n` is a vector of magnitude `sqrt(3)` and is equally inclined with an acute angle with the coordinate axes. Find the vector and Cartesian forms of the equation of a plane which passes through (2, 1, -1) and is normal to ` vec n` .

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Let `\alpha, \beta, \gamma` angles of `\overline{{n}}`
Given angels are equal So:` \alpha=\beta=\gamma`
ie:` \cos \alpha=\cos \beta=\cos \gamma`
So direction cosines` \Rightarrow 1={m}={n} \Rightarrow 1=1=1`
As we know` {l}^{2}+{m}^{2}+{n}^{2}={n} \Rightarrow 8 {l}^{2}=1`
