Question 14 In the following cases, find the distance of each of the given points from the corresponding given plane. The distance of the point (x1, y1, z1) from the plane Ax + By + Cz = D is |(๐จ๐_๐ + ใ๐ฉ๐ใ_๐ +ใ ๐ช๐ใ_๐ โ ๐ซ)/โ(๐จ^๐ + ๐ฉ^๐ + ๐ช^๐ )| Given, the point is (0, 0, 0) So, ๐ฅ_1 = 0, ๐ฆ_1 = 0, ๐ง_1 = 0 and the equation of plane is 3x โ 4y + 12z = 3 Comparing with Ax + By + Cz = D, A = 3, B = โ4, C = 12, D = 3 Now, Distance of point from the plane is = |((3 ร 0) + (โ4 ร 0) + (12 ร 0) โ 3)/( โ(3^2 + (โ4)^2 + ใ12ใ^2 ))| = |(0 + 0 + 0 โ 3)/( โ(9 + 16 + 144))| = |3/( โ169)| = ๐/๐๐
