Detailed Solution

Note that A (1, 2, 4) also lies on the plane. P (0, 5, 5) is a point on the line. Find its reflection Q(α,β,γ) in the plane.

α+02,β+52,γ+52 lies in the plane x+y+z=7

α+02+β+52+γ+52=7α+β+γ=4

α-01=β-51=γ-51=λ

 AQ is the line of reflection Q=(2,3,3)

 direction ratios of reflected line are 3,1 and 1. Thus, its equation is 

x13=y21=z41
