Three Dimensional Geometry Question 222
Question: The intercepts of the plane $ 5x-3y+6z=60 $ on the co-ordinate axes are
[Pb. CET 2000 ; MP PET 2001]
Options:
A) $ (10,,20,,-10) $
B) (10, ? 20, 12)
C) (12, ? 20, 10)
D) (12, 20, ? 10)
Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: C
Solution:
$ \frac{5x}{60}-\frac{3y}{60}+\frac{6z}{60}=1 $
Þ $ \frac{x}{12}-\frac{y}{20}+\frac{z}{10}=1 $ Hence, the intercepts are (12, ?20, 10).
