Let the line L:x=1−y−2=z−3λ,λ∈RL: x = \dfrac{1 - y}{- 2} = \dfrac{z - 3}{\lambda}, \lambda \in \mathbb{R} meet the plane P:x+2y+3z=4P: x + 2y + 3z = 4 at the point (α,β,γ)( \alpha, \beta, \gamma ). If the angle between the line LL and the plane PP is cos⁡−1(514)\cos^{- 1}\left(\sqrt{\dfrac{5}{14}}\right), then α+2β+6γ\alpha + 2\beta + 6\gamma is equal to

Correct answer

0

Step-by-step solution

The given equations are,

L:x−01=y−12=z−3λ and  L: \dfrac{x - 0}{1} = \dfrac{y - 1}{2} = \dfrac{z - 3}{\lambda} \text{\text{ and } } P: x + 2y + 3z = 4

So, Vector parallel to line:=b→: = \overset{\to}{b}

Normal vector to plane P:=n→P: = \overset{\to}{n}

Angle between plane & line is θ\theta. Then angle between the line and normal to the plane will be 90−θ90 - \theta.
Then, ⇒ \cos \left(90 - \theta\right) = \dfrac{\left(\overset{^}{i} + 2\overset{^}{j} + \lambda\overset{^}{k}\right) \cdot \left(\overset{^}{i} + 2\overset{^}{j} + 3\overset{^}{k}\right)}{\sqrt{{1}^{2} + {2}^{2} + {\lambda}^{2}} \cdot \sqrt{{1}^{2} + {2}^{2} + {3}^{2}}}
⇒314=1+4+3λλ2+514⇒λ=23⇒ \dfrac{3}{\sqrt{14}} = \dfrac{1 + 4 + 3\lambda}{\sqrt{{\lambda}^{2} + 5}\sqrt{14}} ⇒ \lambda = \dfrac{2}{3}

L1=x−03=y−16=z−32=μ{L}_{1} = \dfrac{x - 0}{3} = \dfrac{y - 1}{6} = \dfrac{z - 3}{2} = \mu

\left(x, y, z\right) ≡ \left(3\mu, 6\mu + 1, 2\mu + 3\right)</p><p>Butthispointliesontheplane:</p><p>(3μ+12μ+2+6μ+9)=4</p><p>But this point lies on the plane :</p><p>\left(3\mu + 12\mu + 2 + 6\mu + 9\right) = 4

⇒μ=−13⇒ \mu = \dfrac{- 1}{3}
Hence, α=3μ=−1,β=6μ+1=−1,γ=2μ+3=73\alpha = 3\mu = - 1, \beta = 6\mu + 1 = - 1, \gamma = 2\mu + 3 = \dfrac{7}{3}

Now, α+2β+6γ=11\alpha + 2\beta + 6\gamma = 11

Hence this is the required answer.
