a year ago49. Find the equation of the plane passing through the point and perpendicular to each of the planes
Contributor-Level 10
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

30. L.H.S

As sin 2θ = 2 sinθ cosθ.
L.H.S. = sin (2*4x) sin(2*2x)
= sin 8x sin 4x
= R.H.S.
