The coordinates of the points, O and P, are (0, 0) and (1, 2, −3) respectively.
Therefore, the direction ratios of OP are (1 − 0) = 1, (2 − 0) = 2, and (−3 − 0) = −3
It is known that the equation of the plane passing through the point (x1, y1 z1) is
where, a, b, and c are the direction ratios of normal.
Here, the direction ratios of normal are 1, 2, and −3 and the point P is (1, 2, −3).
Thus, the equation of the required plane is

Equation of one plane is
The equation of any plane passing through the line of intersection of these planes is
Its direction ratios are (2λ + 1), (3λ + 1), and (1 − λ).
The required plane is parallel to x-axis. Therefore, its normal is perpendicular to x-axis.
The direction ratios of x-axis are 1, 0, and 0.
Substituting λ = -1/2 in equation (1), we obtain
Therefore, its Cartesian equation is y − 3z + 6 = 0
This is the equation of the required plane.

The position vector through the point is
Similarly, the position vector through the point is
The equation of the given plane is
It is known that the perpendicular distance between a point whose position vector is and the plane, is given by,
Here, and
Therefore, the distance between the point (1, 1, p) and the given plane is
Similarly, the distance between the point and the given plane is
It is given that the distance between the required plane and the points, is equal.

The equation of the plane passing through the point where, a, b, c are the direction ratios of normal to the plane.
It is known that two planes, are perpendicular, if
Plane (1) is perpendicular to the plane,
Also, plane (1) is perpendicular to the plane,
From equations (2) and (3), we obtain
Substituting the values of a, b, and c in equation (1), we obtain
This is the required equation of the plane.

31. L.H.S. = sin 2x + 2 sin 4x + sin 6x
Using sin A + sin B = 2 sin A + B/2 cos A - B/2 we have,
L.H.S. = (sin 2x + sin 6x) + 2 sin 4x
We know that,
Hence,
L.H.S
= R.H.S
