Mark the correct alternative in the following:

The image of the point (1, 3, 4) in the plane 2x – y + z + 3 = 0 is


We know, if the image of a point P (x0, y0, z0) on a plane Ax + By + Cz + D=0……… (1) is Q (x1, y1, z1) then,



The given plane is, 2x–y + z + 3=0 …………. (2)


Comparing equation (2) with equation (1) we get,


A=2, B= - 1, C=1, D=3


And, here x0=1, y0=3, z0=4


So,






x_1=(2( - 2)) + 1


= - 4 + 1


x_1= - 3,


y_1=(( - 1)( - 2)) + 3


=2 + 3


y_1=5 and


z_1=(1( - 2)) + 4


= - 2 + 4


z_1=2


So, the image of the point (1, 3, 4) in the plane 2x – y + z + 3 = 0 is ( - 3, 5, 2)
