16. Equation of the plane passing through line of intersection of planes \(\pi_{1}\) and \(\pi_{2}\) is
\(\pi_{1} + \lambda \pi_{2} = 0\)
\(\Rightarrow (2x + 6y + 4z - 7) + \lambda (x - y - 2z - 2) = 0\)
\(\Rightarrow (2 + \lambda)x + (6 - \lambda)y + (4 - 2\lambda)z - (7 + 2\lambda) = 0\)
Since the above plane is perpendicular to \(x + y + 2z - 5 = 0\)
We can write
\((2 + \lambda) + (6 - \lambda) + 2(4 - 2\lambda) = 0 \Rightarrow \lambda = 4\)

\(a - 2b + 2c = 0 \rightarrow (3)\)
\(\& 3a - 2b + 4c = 0 \rightarrow (4)\)
solving (2),(3),(4)
we get \(a = 2, b = -1, c = -2, d = 3\)
i.e \(2x - y - 2z + 3 = 0\)
19. \(\pi \rightarrow x + y + z = 12\)
\(image of A is = Q(5,6,7)\)
\(\Rightarrow \frac{x - 5}{2} = \frac{y - 6}{1} = \frac{z - 7}{-2} = k\)
\(B(2k + 5, k + 6, -2k + 7)\)
\(\Rightarrow 2k + 5 + k + 6 - 2k + 7 = 12\)

21. \(\pi_{1} : 2x - y + z - 6 = 0\)
\(\pi_{2} : x + y + 2z - 3 = 0\)
\(\cos \theta = \frac{|2 - 1 + 2|}{\sqrt{6}\sqrt{6}} = \frac{3}{6} = \frac{1}{2}\)
\(\theta = \frac{\pi}{3}\)

\((1) \bot^{r} to 2x + 3y + z - 5 = 0\)
\(2a + 3b + c = 0 \rightarrow (4)\)
by solving \(a = 4, b = -3, c = 1\)
\(\therefore (1) \rightarrow 4x - 3y + z + 1 = 0\)

24. \(\alpha = 45^{\circ}, \beta = 120^{\circ}, \gamma = ?\)
\(\cos^{2}\alpha + \cos^{2}\beta + \cos^{2}\gamma = 1\)
\(\frac{1}{4} + \frac{1}{4} + \cos^{2}\gamma = 1 \Rightarrow \cos^{2}\gamma = \frac{1}{4} \Rightarrow \gamma = 60^{\circ}\)
25. \(G = \left(\frac{a}{3}, \frac{b}{3}, \frac{c}{3}\right) = (x, y, z)\)

Given \(\perp^{r}\) distance is 1
\(\Rightarrow \frac{1}{\sqrt{\frac{1}{a^{2}} + \frac{1}{b^{2}} + \frac{1}{c^{2}}}} = 1 \Rightarrow \frac{1}{x^{2}} + \frac{1}{y^{2}} + \frac{1}{z^{2}} = 9\)

\(d = \frac{5}{\sqrt{1 + 4 + 4}} = \frac{5}{\sqrt{9}} = \frac{5}{3} units\)
28. Required equation is
\((x - 2y + z + 2) + \lambda (3x - y - z + 1) = 0 \dots (1)\)
\(\Rightarrow \lambda = -1\)
Substitute \(\lambda = - 1\) in equation (1)
\(\Rightarrow 2x + y - 2z = 1\)
\(x-intercept = \frac{1}{2}\)
29. \(\frac{3 - 2}{2} = \frac{2 - 3}{3} = \frac{1 - 2}{2} = 0 \Rightarrow \lambda = 4\)
\(\sin^{-1}(\sin 4) + \cos^{-1}(\cos 4) = \pi - 4 + 2\pi - 4 = 3\pi - 8\)
30. Given \(a x + b y + c z + 1 = 0 \dots (1)\)

\((1) \perp (3) \Rightarrow a - b + 2c = 0 \dots (5)\)
(1) is passing through
\((1, - 2,1) \Rightarrow a - 2b + c = -1 \dots (6)\)
Solving (4),(5) and (6), we get
\(a = 1, b = 1 \& c = 0\)
Now \(a + b - c = 1 + 1 - 0 = 2\)
31. All points lies on plane \(2x - 2y + 4z + 5 = 0\)

\(\Rightarrow (x\hat{i} + y\hat{j} + z\hat{k}).(2\hat{i} + 3\hat{j} - 4\hat{k}) = 1\)
\(\Rightarrow 2x + 3y - 4z - 1 = 0 \dots (1)\)
Equation of plane parallel to equation (1) is
\(2x + 3y - 4z + h = 0 \dots (2)\)
Given : distance between (1) & (2) = 2
\(\Rightarrow \frac{|h + 1|}{\sqrt{4 + 9 + 16}} = 2 \Rightarrow h = -1 \pm 2\sqrt{29}\)
Hence required equation is:
\(2x + 3y - 4z = 1 \pm 2\sqrt{29}\)
33. Given points A(1,1,- 1), B(2,- 1,0) & C(- 1,0,2)

\(\frac{1}{b} + \frac{1}{c} = 1 - \frac{2}{5} = \frac{3}{5}\)
Since y- intercept of the plane \(\pi\) is Negative,
Z- Intercept of the plane \(\pi\) is Positive

\(\frac{1}{a^{2}} + \frac{1}{b^{2}} + \frac{1}{c^{2}} = \frac{49}{25}\)
\(\frac{4}{25} + \frac{1}{b^{2}} + \frac{1}{c^{2}} = \frac{49}{25}\)
\(\frac{1}{b^{2}} + \frac{1}{c^{2}} = \frac{45}{25} = \frac{9}{5}\)
\(\left(\frac{1}{b} + \frac{1}{c}\right)^{2} - 2\frac{1}{bc} = \frac{9}{5}\)
\(\frac{9}{25} - \frac{9}{5} = \frac{2}{bc} \left(\therefore \frac{1}{b} + \frac{1}{c} = -\frac{3}{5} + \frac{6}{5} = \frac{3}{5}\right)\)
\(bc = - 25 / 18\) (satisfied)
\(= -\frac{5}{3} \cdot \frac{5}{6} = -\frac{25}{18} \therefore b = -\frac{5}{3}, c = \frac{5}{6}\)
