Detailed Solution


The distance between two parallel planes of the form ax+by+cz=d1,ax+by+cz=d2 is

d1d2a2+b2+c25x2.5y+5z=20

Given planes are 

2x-y+2z=5 and

5x-2.5y+5z=20

5x-52y+5z=20
On taking 52common on both sides
The second equation can be written as 2xy+2z=8

⇒ the distance between the given planes 2xy+2z=5 and 2xy+2z=8 is
|85|22+12+22=1
therefore  the distance between the given planes 2xy+2z=5 and 2xy+2z=8 is 1
