Solution
The correct option is Br.(−2i+7j+13k)=−1. r.n1=q1,rn2=q2 are two planes.
The line of intersection of these plance will be perpendicular to both n1 and n2 and hence parallel to n1×n2. n1×n2=N=∣∣
∣∣ijk3−1114−2∣∣
∣∣=−2i+7i+13k Since the given plane is perpendicular to N and hence its normal is N and it passes through a. Hence its equation is (r−a).N=0→r.N=a.N
