Equation of the plane containing the straight line $\frac{x}{3}=\frac{y}{2}=\frac{z}{4}$ and perpendicular to the plane containing the straight lines $\frac{x}{4}=\frac{y}{3}=\frac{z}{2}$ and $\frac{\dot{x}}{2}=\frac{y}{-4}=\frac{z}{3}$ is
  1. $\quad 6 x-67 y-29 \mathrm{z}=0$
  2. $6 x+67 y-29 z=0$
  3. $\quad 6 x-67 y+29 z=0$
  4. $6 x+67 y+29 z=0$

Solution

Equation of the plane containing $\frac{x}{4}=\frac{y}{3}=\frac{z}{2}$ and $\frac{x}{2}=\frac{y}{-4}=\frac{z}{3}$ is $\begin{aligned} & \left|\begin{array}{ccc} x & y & z \\ 4 & 3 & 2 \\ 2 & -4 & 3 \end{array}\right|=0 \\ & \Rightarrow 17 x-8 y-22 z=0 \end{aligned}$
Now required plane is perpendicular to this plane. Consider option (C) $(17)(6)+(-8)(-67)+(-22)(29)=0$ $\therefore \quad$ Option (C) is correct.
