Find the vector equation of the plane through the point and parallel to the plane

Formula : Plane = r . (n) = d


Where r = any random point


n = normal vector of plane


d = distance of plane from origin


If two planes are parallel , then their normal vectors are same.


Therefore ,


Parallel Plane r . (2i – 3j + 5k) + 5 = 0


Normal vector = (2i - 3j + 5k)


Normal vector of required plane = (2i - 3j + 5k)


Equation of required plane r . (2i - 3j + 5k) = d


In cartesian form 2x – 3y + 5z = d


Plane passes through point (3,4, - 1) therefore it will satisfy it.


2(3) – 3(4) + 5( - 1) = d


6 – 12 - 5 = d


d = - 11


Equation of required plane r . (2i - 3j + 5k) = - 11


r . (2i - 3j + 5k) + 11 = 0
