Let M= foot of the perpendicular drawn from P to the plane.  eq. of line PM x21=y+12=z31=λ  any point on line =(λ+2,2λ1,λ+3)  for point ' M ' (λ+2)+2(2λ1)(3λ)=0 λ=12 foot=M=12+2,2×121,12+3=52,0,52
Image of P(2, -1, 3) in the plane x + 2y - z = 0 is (3, 1, 2)
Distance of the plane 3x + 2y + z + 29 = 0 from the point Q is =9+2+2+2914=314
