The co-ordinates of the foot of perpendicular drawn from origin to the plane 2x-y+5z-3=0 are

A

`((2)/(sqrt(30)),(-1)/(sqrt(30)),(5)/(sqrt(30)))`

B

`(2,-1,5)`

C

`((2)/(3),(-1)/(3),(5)/(3))`

D

`((1)/(5),(-1)/(10),(1)/(2))`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

Given equation of plane is `2x-y+5z-3=0`
`therefore` Foot of perpendicular drawn from origin to the given plane
`implies(x-0)/(2)=(y-0)/(1)=(z-0)/(5)`
`=(-(0+0+0-3))/((2)^(2)+(-1)^(2)+(5)^(2))`
`implies(x)/(2)=(y)/(-1)=(z)/(5)=(3)/(30)=(1)/(10)`
`implies(x)/(2)=(1)/(10),(y)/(-1)=(1)/(10),(z)/(5)=(1)/(10)`
`impliesx=(1)/(5),y=-(1)/(10),z=(1)/(2)`
