Q89.Let S be the mirror image of the point Q(1, 3, 4) with respect to the plane 2x โˆ’y + z + 3 = 0 and let R(3, 5, ฮณ) be a point of this plane. Then the square of the length of the line segment SR is

What This Question Tests

This question requires finding the mirror image of a point with respect to a plane, which involves determining the foot of the perpendicular from the point to the plane. It also involves verifying if a given point lies on the plane and then calculating the distance between two points.

Concepts Tested

Equation of a planeDirection ratios of a normal to a planeSection formulaDistance formula in 3D

Formulas Used

Equation of line passing through (x1, y1, z1) with DRs (a, b, c): (x - x1)/a = (y - y1)/b = (z - z1)/c

Midpoint formula: ((x1+x2)/2, (y1+y2)/2, (z1+z2)/2)

Distance between two points in 3D: sqrt((x2-x1)^2 + (y2-y1)^2 + (z2-z1)^2)
