The correct Answer is:
To find the image of the origin with respect to the plane given by the equation \( \frac{x}{a} + \frac{y}{b} + \frac{z}{c} = 1 \), we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Rewrite the Plane Equation The given equation of the plane can be rewritten in the standard form: \[ \frac{x}{a} + \frac{y}{b} + \frac{z}{c} - 1 = 0 \] This can be expressed as: \[ \frac{x}{a} + \frac{y}{b} + \frac{z}{c} = 1 \implies ax + by + cz = abc \] where \( D = abc \). ### Step 2: Identify the Coefficients From the plane equation \( ax + by + cz = abc \), we can identify the coefficients: - \( A = a \) - \( B = b \) - \( C = c \) - \( D = abc \) ### Step 3: Use the Image Formula The formula for the image of a point \( (x_1, y_1, z_1) \) with respect to the plane \( Ax + By + Cz = D \) is given by: \[ \left( x', y', z' \right) = \left( x_1 - \frac{2A(Ax_1 + By_1 + Cz_1 - D)}{A^2 + B^2 + C^2}, y_1 - \frac{2B(Ax_1 + By_1 + Cz_1 - D)}{A^2 + B^2 + C^2}, z_1 - \frac{2C(Ax_1 + By_1 + Cz_1 - D)}{A^2 + B^2 + C^2} \right) \] ### Step 4: Substitute the Origin Coordinates For the origin, we have \( (x_1, y_1, z_1) = (0, 0, 0) \). Substituting these values into the formula: \[ Ax_1 + By_1 + Cz_1 - D = 0 + 0 + 0 - abc = -abc \] Thus, we can substitute into the image formula: \[ x' = 0 - \frac{2a(-abc)}{a^2 + b^2 + c^2} = \frac{2abc}{a^2 + b^2 + c^2} \] \[ y' = 0 - \frac{2b(-abc)}{a^2 + b^2 + c^2} = \frac{2abc}{a^2 + b^2 + c^2} \] \[ z' = 0 - \frac{2c(-abc)}{a^2 + b^2 + c^2} = \frac{2abc}{a^2 + b^2 + c^2} \] ### Step 5: Final Result Thus, the image of the origin with respect to the plane is: \[ \left( \frac{2abc}{a^2 + b^2 + c^2}, \frac{2abc}{a^2 + b^2 + c^2}, \frac{2abc}{a^2 + b^2 + c^2} \right) \]

To find the image of the origin with respect to the plane given by the equation \( \frac{x}{a} + \frac{y}{b} + \frac{z}{c} = 1 \), we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Rewrite the Plane Equation The given equation of the plane can be rewritten in the standard form: \[ \frac{x}{a} + \frac{y}{b} + \frac{z}{c} - 1 = 0 \] This can be expressed as: ...
