Question
The equation of the plane passing through the three coordinate intercepts a, b, c is:
- Ax/a + y/b + z/c = 1Correct
- Bax + by + cz = 1
- Cx + y + z = a+b+c
- Dxyz = abc
Correct answer
x/a + y/b + z/c = 1
Explanation
Intercept form of the plane: x/a + y/b + z/c = 1. It passes through (a,0,0), (0,b,0), and (0,0,c).
