The angles between the planes `vecr.(3hati-6hatj+2hatk)=4` and `vecr.(2hati-hatj+2hatk)=3`, is

A

`cos^(-1)(16/21)`

B

`cos^(-1)(4/21)`

C

`cos^(-1)(3/4)`

D

`cos^(-1)(1/4)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
a

The given planes are `3x-6y+2z=4` and `2x-y+2z=3`.
`therefore costheta=|(3 xx 2)+(-6) xx (-1) +(2 xx 2)|/(sqrt(3^(2)+(-6)^(2)+2^(2))sqrt(2^(2)+(-1)^(2)+2^(2))`
`16/(sqrt(49)sqrt(9))=16/(7 xx 3) =16/21`.
`rArr theta=cos^(-1)(16/21)`.
