B Correct answer
Explanation

 $\theta$ is angle b/w $\xrightarrow [\gamma]{} =2\hat {  i}+j+k+(i+j+k)t$ and $\rightarrow.(3\hat { i }-4\hat { j }+5k)=q$

Angle b/w line and plane is given by 

$\sin\theta =\dfrac{4 _1a _2+b _1b _2+c _1c _2}{\sqrt{a _1^2+b _1^2+c _1^2}\sqrt{a _2^2+b _2^2+c _2^2}}$   

Where $(a _1,b _1,c _1)$ and $(a _2,b _2,c _2)$ are direction ratios of line and plane Respectively so here 

$a _1,b _1,c _1)=(1,1,1)$ and $(a _2,b _2,c _2)=(3,-4,5)$

So $\sin \theta=\dfrac{3-4+5}{\sqrt{1+1+1}\sqrt{9+16+25}}$

$\dfrac{4}{\sqrt{3}\sqrt{50}}=\dfrac{4}{\sqrt{3}5\sqrt{2}}=\dfrac{4}{\sqrt{6.5}}\times \dfrac{\sqrt{6}}{\sqrt{6}}=\dfrac{2\sqrt{6}}{5.3}=\dfrac{2\sqrt{6}}{15}$

so here $\sin\theta =\dfrac{2\sqrt{6}}{15} \Rightarrow \theta =\sin\dfrac{2\sqrt{6}}{15}$

  2. $k> 2$
  3. $k< 1$ or $k> 2$
  4. $1< k< 2$

D Correct answer
Explanation

 Given plane equation is $2{x}+3{y}-2{z}-k=0$

$(1,2,3)$ and $(2,-1,0)$ lies on the opposite sides of the plane
$(2(1)+3(2)-2(3)-k)(2(2)+3(-1)-2(0)-k)<0$
$(2-k)(1-k)<0\implies (k-1)(k-2)<0$
$\implies 1<k<2$

If the planes $x - cy - bz = 0,cx - y + az = 0\,$ and $bx + ay - z = 0$ pass through a stright line,then the value of ${a^2} + {b^2} + {c^2} + 2abc\,$ is:

  1. $1$
  2. $2$
  3. $3$
  4. none of these

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation
If the planes $(x - cy - bz = 0), (cx - y + az = 0)$ and $(bx + ay - z = 0)$ are in same line.
$\therefore$ They must be collinear.
$\begin{vmatrix}1 & -c & -b\\ c & -1 & a\\ b & a & -1\end{vmatrix} = 0$
$\Rightarrow 1(1 - a^2) + c(-c - ab) -b(ac + b) = 0$
$\Rightarrow 1 - a^2 - c^2 - abc - abc - b^2 = 0$
$\therefore a^2 + b^2 + c^2 + 2abc = 1$

  1. $(\cfrac { 23 }{ 3 } ,\cfrac { 1 }{ 3 } ,0)$
  2. $(\cfrac { 23 }{ 6 } ,\cfrac { 1 }{ 6 } ,0)$
  3. $(\cfrac { 23 }{ 3 } ,\cfrac { 1 }{ 3 } , 1)$
  4. $(\cfrac { 23 }{ 3 } ,\cfrac { 1 }{ 3 } , 3)$
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

Equation of line through $A(3,-2,7)$ and $B(13,3,-8)$ is:

$\cfrac { x-3 }{ 10 } =\cfrac { y+2 }{ 5 } =\cfrac { z-7 }{ -15 }$
When the line meets $x-y$ plane $\Rightarrow z=0$
$\therefore \cfrac { x-3 }{ 10 } =\cfrac { y+2 }{ 5 } =\cfrac { 7 }{ 15 } \quad \quad \Rightarrow x=\cfrac { 23 }{ 3 } ,y=\cfrac { 1 }{ 3 } \quad \quad \Rightarrow (x,y,z)=(\cfrac { 23 }{ 3 } ,\cfrac { 1 }{ 3 } ,0)$

A Correct answer
Explanation

Direction ratios of the line is $2i+3j+2k$
and normal of plane is along $4i-2j-k$
Now, $(2i+3j+2k).(4i-2j-k)=8-6-2=0$

The ratio in which the plane $r.\left( \hat { i } -2\hat { j } +2\hat { k }  \right) =17$ divides the line joining the points $-2\hat { i } +4\hat { j } +7\hat { k } $ and $3\hat { i } -5\hat { j } +8\hat { k } $ is:

  1. $3:5$
  2. $1:10$
  3. $3:10$
  4. $1:5$
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer
Explanation

Let the plane $r.(i-2j+3k)=17$ divide the line joining the points. 

$-2i+4j+7k$ and $2i-5j+8k$ in the ratio $t:1$ at the point $P.$

$\therefore P$ is $\displaystyle \dfrac { 3t-1 }{ t+1 } i+\dfrac { -5t+4 }{ t+1 } j+\dfrac { 8t+7 }{ t+1 } k.$

This lies on the given plane, 

$\displaystyle \therefore \dfrac { 3t-2 }{ t+1 } .1+\dfrac { -5t+4 }{ t+1 } \left( 2 \right) +\dfrac { 8t+7 }{ t+1 } \left( 3 \right) =17$

$\Rightarrow 3t-2+10t-8+24t+21=17t+17$

$\displaystyle \therefore 20t=17-21+10=6\Rightarrow =\dfrac { 6 }{ 20 } =\dfrac { 3 }{ 10 } $

$\therefore$ required ratio is $3:10$.

Line $\vec r=\vec a+\lambda \vec b$ will not meet the plane $\vec r\cdot \vec n=q$, if-

  1. $\vec b\cdot \vec n=0, \vec a\cdot \vec n=q$
  2. $\vec b\cdot \vec n\neq 0, \vec a\cdot \vec n\neq q$
  3. $\vec b\cdot \vec n=0, \vec a\cdot \vec n\neq q$
  4. $\vec b\cdot \vec n\neq 0, \vec a\cdot \vec n=q$
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer
Explanation

Given line is $\overrightarrow { r } =\overrightarrow { a } +\lambda \overrightarrow { b } $

Substitute it in plane equation $\overrightarrow { r } .\overrightarrow { n } =q$
We get $(\overrightarrow { a } +\lambda \overrightarrow { b } ).\overrightarrow { n } =q$
$\Rightarrow \overrightarrow { a } .\overrightarrow { n } +\lambda (\overrightarrow { b } .\overrightarrow { n } )=q$
If $\overrightarrow { b } .\overrightarrow { n } =0$ and $\overrightarrow { a } .\overrightarrow { n } \neq q$ then the line will not meet the plane
Therefore the correct option is $C$
