The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to find the vector \(\vec{v}\) that is inclined to the \(x\)-axis at \(60^\circ\), to the \(y\)-axis at \(45^\circ\), and to the \(z\)-axis at an acute angle. We will then use this vector to determine the condition for the plane passing through the points \((\sqrt{2}, -1, 1)\) and \((a, b, c)\) being normal to \(\vec{v}\). ### Step 1: Determine the direction ratios of the vector \(\vec{v}\) The direction ratios \(L\), \(M\), and \(N\) of the vector \(\vec{v}\) can be determined using the angles given: 1. **For the \(x\)-axis**: \[ L = \cos(60^\circ) = \frac{1}{2} \] 2. **For the \(y\)-axis**: \[ M = \cos(45^\circ) = \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}} \] 3. **For the \(z\)-axis**: Let \(N = \cos(\theta)\) where \(\theta\) is the acute angle. ### Step 2: Use the normalization condition Since \(\vec{v}\) is a unit vector, we have: \[ L^2 + M^2 + N^2 = 1 \] Substituting the values of \(L\) and \(M\): \[ \left(\frac{1}{2}\right)^2 + \left(\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}\right)^2 + N^2 = 1 \] \[ \frac{1}{4} + \frac{1}{2} + N^2 = 1 \] \[ \frac{1}{4} + \frac{2}{4} + N^2 = 1 \] \[ \frac{3}{4} + N^2 = 1 \] \[ N^2 = 1 - \frac{3}{4} = \frac{1}{4} \] \[ N = \frac{1}{2} \quad (\text{since } N \text{ is acute}) \] ### Step 3: Write the vector \(\vec{v}\) The vector \(\vec{v}\) can now be expressed as: \[ \vec{v} = \left(\frac{1}{2}, \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}, \frac{1}{2}\right) \] ### Step 4: Find the normal vector to the plane The normal vector to the plane can be represented as: \[ \vec{n} = (1, \sqrt{2}, 1) \] ### Step 5: Set up the equation for the plane The equation of the plane can be expressed using the normal vector and the point \((\sqrt{2}, -1, 1)\): \[ \vec{n} \cdot \left((a, b, c) - (\sqrt{2}, -1, 1)\right) = 0 \] Expanding this gives: \[ 1(a - \sqrt{2}) + \sqrt{2}(b + 1) + 1(c - 1) = 0 \] \[ a - \sqrt{2} + \sqrt{2}b + \sqrt{2} + c - 1 = 0 \] \[ a + \sqrt{2}b + c - \sqrt{2} - 1 = 0 \] \[ a + \sqrt{2}b + c = \sqrt{2} + 1 \] ### Conclusion Thus, the condition for the plane is: \[ a + \sqrt{2}b + c = \sqrt{2} + 1 \]
