The equation of the plane containing the line \(\frac{\mathrm{x}-\mathrm{x}_{1}}{\ell}=\frac{\mathrm{y}-\mathrm{y}_{1}}{\mathrm{~m}}=\frac{\mathrm{z}-\mathrm{z}_{1}}{\mathrm{n}}\)is
a (x – x1) + b(y – y1) + c(z – z1) = 0, where :
  1. ax1 + by1 + cz1 = 0
  2. a + bm + cn = 0
  3. \(\frac{\mathrm{a}}{\ell}=\frac{\mathrm{b}}{\mathrm{~m}}=\frac{\mathrm{c}}{\mathrm{n}}\)
  4. x1 + my1 + nz1 = 0

Answer

(B) a  + bm + cn = 0
