If 2,3,9,5,2,1,1,λ,8 and λ,2,3 are coplanar, then the product of all possible values of λ is
  1. 212
  2. 598
  3. 578
  4. 958

Solution

Given,

Points A2,3,9, B5,2,1, C1,λ,8 & Dλ,2,3 are coplanar,

Now we know that condition of coplanarity is  ABACAD=0

3-1-8-1λ-3-1λ-2-1-6=0

3-6λ-3-1+16+λ-2-81-λ-3λ-2=0

3-6λ+17+4+λ-8+8λ-3λ-2=0

-18λ+51+4+λ-8+8λ2-40λ+48=0

8λ2-57λ+95=0

So product of roots will be 958
