Given :

Equation of plane : 2x – 3y + 5z + 4 = 0

To Find :

1) Equation of plane in intercept form

2) Intercepts made by the plane with the co-ordinate axes.

Formula :

If

is the equation of plane in intercept form then intercept made by it with co-ordinate axes are

X-intercept = a

Y-intercept = b

Z-intercept = c

Answer :

Given equation of plane:

2x – 3y + 5z = -4

Dividing above equation throughout by -4

This is the equation of plane in intercept form.

Comparing above equation with

We get,

a = -2

Therefore, intercepts made by plane with co-ordinate axes are

X-intercept = -2
