The coordinate of the foot of the perpen...

The coordinate of the foot of the perpendicular drawn from  the origin to a plane are (12, -4, 3). Find the equation of the plane.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Let` P(-12,-4,3)` is the foot of perpendicular from the origin to the plane.
`\therefore {{OP}}={{n}}=-12 {{i}}-4 {{j}}+3 {{k}}`
`\text { And } {p}=|-12 {{i}}-4 {{j}}+3 {{k}}|=\sqrt{(-12)^{2}+16+9} `
