Solution

The correct option is B 1
Equation of the plane containing $^i$ and $^i +^j$ is
$\Rightarrow (\to r -^i) \cdot [^i \times (^i +^j)] = 0$
$⇒{(x^i+y^j+z^k)−^i}.[^i×^i+^i×^j]=0$
$⇒{(x−1)^i+y^j+z^k}.[^k]=0$ $\Rightarrow (x - 1)^i .^k + y^j .^k + z^k .^k = 0$ $\Rightarrow z = 0$ ...(i)
Equation of the plane containing $^i -^j$ and $^i +^k$ is
$\Rightarrow (\to r -^i +^j) \cdot [(^i -^j) \times (^i +^k)] = 0$
$⇒{(x^i+y^j+z^k)−(^i−^j)}.[^i×^i+^i×^k−^j×^i−^j×^k]=0$ $⇒{(x−1)^i+(y+1)^j+z^k}.[−^j+^k−^i]=0$
$\Rightarrow - (x - 1) - (y + 1) + z = 0$
$\Rightarrow x + y - z = 0$ ...(ii)

Let $\to a = a_{1}^i + a_{2}^j + a_{3}^k$
Since $\to a$ is parallel to equations (i) and (ii), we obtain
$a_{3} = 0$ and $a_{1} + a_{2} - a_{3} = 0$
$\Rightarrow a_{1} = - a_{2}, a_{3} = 0$
Thus a vector in the direction $\to a$ is $^i -^j$
If $θ$ is the angle between $\to a$ and $^i - 2^j + 2^k$ , then
$cos θ = \pm \frac{(1) (1) + (- 1) (- 2)}{\sqrt{1 + 1} \sqrt{1 + 4 + 4}} = \pm \frac{3}{\sqrt{2} \times 3}$
$\Rightarrow \sqrt{2} cos θ = \pm 1$
$∴ \sqrt{2} cos θ = 1$ $[∵ θ is acute]$
