Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
1
1
Given planes are:
x-cy-bz=0…(i)
cx - y + az = 0 ...(ii)
bx + ay- z = 0 ...(iii)
Equation of the plane passing through the line of intersection of the plane (i) and (ii) may be taken as:
(x-cy- bz) +
(cx - y + az) = 0
or x (1 +
c) - y (c +
) + z (-b + a
) = 0 ...(iv)
If plane (iii) and (iv) are the same, then
or 
and
