The correct Answer is:
To find the vector equation of the plane containing the line of intersection of the given planes and passing through the point (-1, 1, 2), we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Write the equations of the given planes in Cartesian form. The first plane is given by: \[ \vec{r} \cdot (2\hat{i} - \hat{j} - \hat{k}) = 6 \] This can be rewritten in Cartesian form as: \[ 2x - y - z - 6 = 0 \quad \text{(Equation 1)} \] The second plane is given by: \[ \vec{r} \cdot (3\hat{i} + \hat{j} + 2\hat{k}) = 0 \] This can be rewritten in Cartesian form as: \[ 3x + y + 2z = 0 \quad \text{(Equation 2)} \] ### Step 2: Form the general equation of the plane containing the line of intersection. The general equation of a plane containing the line of intersection of the two planes can be expressed as: \[ P_1 + \lambda P_2 = 0 \] Substituting the equations of the planes into this form gives: \[ (2x - y - z - 6) + \lambda(3x + y + 2z) = 0 \] ### Step 3: Simplify the equation. Expanding this, we have: \[ (2 + 3\lambda)x + (-1 + \lambda)y + (-1 + 2\lambda)z - 6 = 0 \] ### Step 4: Substitute the point (-1, 1, 2) into the equation. Since the plane passes through the point (-1, 1, 2), we substitute \(x = -1\), \(y = 1\), and \(z = 2\) into the equation: \[ (2 + 3\lambda)(-1) + (-1 + \lambda)(1) + (-1 + 2\lambda)(2) - 6 = 0 \] ### Step 5: Solve for \(\lambda\). This simplifies to: \[ -(2 + 3\lambda) - 1 + \lambda - 2 + 4\lambda - 6 = 0 \] Combining like terms: \[ -2 - 3\lambda - 1 + \lambda - 2 + 4\lambda - 6 = 0 \] \[ -11 + 2\lambda = 0 \] Thus, \[ 2\lambda = 11 \implies \lambda = \frac{11}{2} \] ### Step 6: Substitute \(\lambda\) back into the plane equation. Now substitute \(\lambda = \frac{11}{2}\) back into the plane equation: \[ (2 + 3 \cdot \frac{11}{2})x + (-1 + \frac{11}{2})y + (-1 + 2 \cdot \frac{11}{2})z - 6 = 0 \] Calculating the coefficients: \[ (2 + \frac{33}{2})x + (\frac{9}{2})y + (10)z - 6 = 0 \] This simplifies to: \[ \frac{37}{2}x + \frac{9}{2}y + 10z - 6 = 0 \] ### Step 7: Multiply through by 2 to eliminate the fractions. Multiplying through by 2 gives: \[ 37x + 9y + 20z - 12 = 0 \] ### Final Answer: The vector equation of the required plane is: \[ 37x + 9y + 20z = 12 \]
