The correct Answer is:
To find the perpendicular distance between the given line and the plane, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Identify the components of the line and the plane The line is given by the vector equation: \[ \vec{r} = 2\hat{i} - 2\hat{j} + 3\hat{k} + \lambda(\hat{i} - \hat{j} + 4\hat{k}) \] From this, we can identify: - Point \( A = 2\hat{i} - 2\hat{j} + 3\hat{k} \) - Direction vector \( \vec{b} = \hat{i} - \hat{j} + 4\hat{k} \) The plane is given by the equation: \[ \vec{r} \cdot (\hat{i} + 5\hat{j} + \hat{k}) = 5 \] From this, we can identify: - Normal vector \( \vec{n} = \hat{i} + 5\hat{j} + \hat{k} \) - Constant \( p = 5 \) ### Step 2: Check if the line is parallel to the plane To check if the line is parallel to the plane, we calculate the dot product of the direction vector \( \vec{b} \) and the normal vector \( \vec{n} \): \[ \vec{b} \cdot \vec{n} = (1)(1) + (-1)(5) + (4)(1) = 1 - 5 + 4 = 0 \] Since the dot product is zero, the line is indeed parallel to the plane. ### Step 3: Calculate the distance from point A to the plane The distance \( d \) from a point \( A(x_1, y_1, z_1) \) to the plane \( Ax + By + Cz = D \) is given by the formula: \[ d = \frac{|Ax_1 + By_1 + Cz_1 - D|}{\sqrt{A^2 + B^2 + C^2}} \] For our case: - \( A = 1, B = 5, C = 1, D = 5 \) - Coordinates of point \( A \) are \( (2, -2, 3) \) Substituting these values into the formula: \[ d = \frac{|1(2) + 5(-2) + 1(3) - 5|}{\sqrt{1^2 + 5^2 + 1^2}} \] Calculating the numerator: \[ = |2 - 10 + 3 - 5| = |2 - 10 + 3 - 5| = |-10| = 10 \] Calculating the denominator: \[ = \sqrt{1 + 25 + 1} = \sqrt{27} = 3\sqrt{3} \] ### Step 4: Final distance calculation Thus, the distance \( d \) is: \[ d = \frac{10}{3\sqrt{3}} \] ### Final Answer The perpendicular distance between the line and the plane is: \[ \frac{10}{3\sqrt{3}} \]

To find the perpendicular distance between the given line and the plane, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Identify the components of the line and the plane The line is given by the vector equation: \[ \vec{r} = 2\hat{i} - 2\hat{j} + 3\hat{k} + \lambda(\hat{i} - \hat{j} + 4\hat{k}) \] From this, we can identify: ...
