  Given α=3i^+j^+2k^ and β=i^2j^4k^ are the  position vectors of the points A and B. Then the distance 

  of the point i^+j^+k^ from the plane passing through B and perpendicular to AB is

a
5
b
10
c
15
d
20

detailed solution

Correct option is A

AB→=β→−α→=−2i^−3j^−6k^Equation of the plane passing through B and perpendicular to AB is  (r→−OB→)⋅AB→=0r→⋅(2i^+3j^+6k^)+28=0Hence, the required distance from r→=−i^+j^+k^=(−i^+j^+k^)⋅(2i^+3j^+6k^)+28|2i^+3j^+6k^|=−2+3+6+287=5 units
