P1:x+(λ+4)y+z1=0P2:2x+y+z2=0
Equation of the plane containing the line of intersection of the plane P1 and P2 is
of the from P1+tP2=0
[x+(λ+4)y+z1]+t[2x+y+z2]=0
Eq. (1) pass through (0, 1, 0) & (1, 0, 1)
 i.e., [(λ+4)+t]12t=0λt+3=0.(2)
Also (1+2t)+(1+t)12t=0t=1.(3)
 Eq. (2) \& (3) λ+1+3=0λ=4
Now (2λ,λ,λ)=(8,4,4)
Then distance from (-8, -4, 4) to P2 is
=ax1+by1+cz1+da2+b2+c2=|2(8)+(4)+(4)2|4+1+1=|164+42|6=186=36
