Solution
The correct option is D3x−y−2=0 Equation of plane passing through →p=^i+^j+^k is given by, a(x−1)+b(y−1)+c(z−1)=0 Given plane containing →q=2^i+4^j−1^k ⇒a+3b−2c=0......(1) it also containing →r=2^i+4^j+3^k ⇒a+3b+3c=0.....(2) Solving (1) and (2), we get c=0,a=−3b Hence, required plane is 3x−y−2=0
