Find the coordinates of the point, where the line fraction numerator straight x minus 2 over denominator 3 end fraction equals fraction numerator straight y plus 1 over denominator 4 end fraction equals fraction numerator straight z minus 2 over denominator 2 end fraction intersects the plane straight x minus straight y plus straight z minus 5 space equals space 0. Also find the angle between the line and the plane. 


The equation of the given line is fraction numerator straight x minus 2 over denominator 3 end fraction equals space fraction numerator straight y plus 1 over denominator 4 end fraction equals fraction numerator straight z minus 2 over denominator 2 end fraction space space... left parenthesis 1 right parenthesis
Any point on the given line is left parenthesis 3 straight lambda plus 2 comma space 4 straight lambda minus 1 comma space 2 straight lambda plus 2 right parenthesis.
If this point lies on the given plane x - y + z - 5 = 0, then
3 straight lambda plus 2 minus left parenthesis 4 straight lambda minus 1 right parenthesis plus 2 straight lambda plus 2 minus 5 space equals space 0
rightwards double arrow straight lambda space equals space 0
Putting straight lambda space equals space 0 in left parenthesis 3 straight lambda plus 2 comma space 4 straight lambda minus 1 comma space 2 straight lambda plus 2 right parenthesis comma we get the point of intersection of the given line and the plane is (2, -1, 2).
Let straight theta be the angle between the given line and the plane. 
therefore space space sin space straight theta space equals space fraction numerator straight a with rightwards arrow on top. straight b with rightwards arrow on top over denominator open vertical bar straight a with rightwards arrow on top close vertical bar open vertical bar straight b with rightwards arrow on top close vertical bar end fraction space equals fraction numerator left parenthesis 3 straight i with rightwards arrow on top plus 4 straight j with rightwards arrow on top plus 2 stack straight k right parenthesis with rightwards arrow on top. left parenthesis straight i with rightwards arrow on top minus straight j with rightwards arrow on top plus straight k with rightwards arrow on top right parenthesis over denominator square root of 3 squared plus 4 squared plus 2 squared end root square root of 1 squared plus 1 squared plus 1 squared end root end fraction equals fraction numerator 3 minus 4 plus 2 over denominator square root of 29 square root of 3 end fraction equals fraction numerator 1 over denominator square root of 87 end fraction
rightwards double arrow straight theta space equals sin to the power of negative 1 end exponent open parentheses fraction numerator 1 over denominator square root of 87 end fraction close parentheses
Thus, the angle between the given line and the given plane is sin to the power of negative 1 end exponent open parentheses fraction numerator 1 over denominator square root of 87 end fraction close parentheses.

325. Let space straight a with rightwards arrow on top space equals space straight i with hat on top space plus straight j with hat on top space plus stack straight k comma with hat on top space
straight b with rightwards arrow on top space equals space straight i with hat on top space and
straight c with rightwards arrow on top space equals space straight c subscript 1 straight i with hat on top space plus straight c subscript 2 straight j with hat on top space plus straight c subscript 3 straight k with hat on top space space then
a) Let c1 = 1 and c2 = 2, find c3 which makes straight a with rightwards arrow on top space comma straight b with rightwards arrow on top space and space straight c with rightwards arrow on top coplanar.
b) If c2 = –1 and c3 = 1, show that no value of c1 can make straight a with rightwards arrow on top space comma straight b with rightwards arrow on top space and space straight c with rightwards arrow on top coplanar.
