Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
D
Obviously the line and the plane are parallel, so to find the distance between the line and the plane, take any point on the line i.e., (1, – 2, 1). Now the perpendicular distance of the point (1, – 2, 1) from the plane will be the required distance.
Hence distance 
.
