The image of the point (1,2,3) by the plane, x+y+z+3=0 is

A

`(-5,4,-3)`

B

`(-5,-4,-3)`

C

`(5,-4,3)`

D

`(5,4,3)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

The image (x,y,z) of the point (1,2,3) by the plane
`x+y+z+3=0" is "(x-1)/(1)=(y-2)/(1)=(z-3)/(1)" is "`
`=-2*((1xx1+1xx2+1xx3=3))/(1^(2)+1^(2)+1^(2))`
`rArr" "(x-1)/(1)=(y-2)/(1)=(z-3)/(1)=-6`
`rArr" "x=-5,y=-4,z=-3`
Hence, required image point is (-5,-4,-3).
