If the plane 56 x+4 y+9 z=2016 meets the coordinate axes in A, B and C , then the centroid of the A B C is
Options
- A(12,168,224)
- B(12,168,112)
- C(12,168, 224 3 )
- D(12,168, 224 )
Correct answer
C. (12,168, 224 3 )
Step-by-step solution
The given equation of plane is : 56 x+4 y+9 z=2016 aligned & 56 x 2016 + y 504 + z 224 =1 & x 36 + y 504 + z 224 =1 aligned Then co-ordinate of A, B and C are (36,0,0),(0,504,0) and (0,0,224) . Now, the centroid is ( 36+0+0 3 , 0+504+0 3 , 0+0+224 3 ) Centroid = (12,168, 224 3 ) .
