Detailed Solution

Equation of plane passing through (–2, –2, 2) is
l(x+2) + m (y+2) + n(z–2) = 0
Where l, m, n are dr’s of normal to the plane
Since it contains the line joining (1, 1, 1) and (1, –1,2) these points also lie on the planes
3l+3mn=0 and 3l+m=0l1=m3=n6
 equation of the plane is
(x + 2) – 3(y + 2) – 6(z – 2) = 0 or
x3y6z+8=0x8=y8/3=z8/6a=8,b=8/3,c=8/6
