JEE Main2014MathematicsThree Dimensional GeometryActual
If the distance between planes, 4 x-2 y-4 z+1= 0 and 4 x-2 y-4 z+d=0 is 7 , then d is:
Options
- A41 or -42
- B42 or -43
- C-41 or 43
- D-42 or 44
Correct answer
C. -41 or 43
Step-by-step solution
Given planes are 4 x-2 y-4 z+1=0 and 4 x-2 y-4 z+d=0 They are parallel. Distance between them is 7= d-1 16+4+16 aligned & d-1 6 = 7 & d=42+1 & or -42+1 & i.e. d=-41 or 43 . aligned
