A point moves in such a way that the sum of its distance from xy-plane and yz-plane remains equal to its distance from zx-plane. The locus of the point is
The correct option is D. x+z−y=0
We know that,
Distance from xy-plane to the point P(x,y,z)=|z|
Distance from zx-plane to the point P(x,y,z)=|y|
Distance from yz-plane to the point P(x,y,z)=|x|
It is given that,
the sum of its distance from xy-plane and yz-plane remains equal to its distance from zx-plane
⇒|x|+|z|=|y|
⇒x+z−y=0
