Detailed Solution

Let P(x1,y1,z1) be a point on ax+by+cz=d. Then ax1+by1+cz1=d

Let OP=r. Then direction cosines of OP are x1r,y1r,z1r

Equation of line OP is x0x1r=y0y1r=z0z1r=λ

Let Q(α,β,γ) be a point on OP such then OQ=λ Then coordinates of Q(x1λr,y1λr,z1λr).

But coordinate of Q be (α,β,γ)

x1=αrλ,y1=βrλ,z1=γrλax1+by1+cz1=d

rλ(aα+bβ+cγ)=d.. (ii)

OP.OQ =d2

λ=d2

λ2 d(aα+bβ+cγ)=d2
