Find the equation of the plane which cuts off intercepts 3,6 and -4 from the axes of coordinates.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

We know that the equation of a plane which cuts off intercept a,b,c from the x-axis, y-axis and z-axis respectively, is
`x/a+y/b+z/c=1`.
Here, a=3, b=6 and c=-4.
Hence, the required equation of the plane is
`x/3+y/6+z/-4=1 rArr 4x+2y-3z=12`.
