Solution
The correct option is A3219 Family of plane is, x+y+z+1+k(2x–y+z+3)=0(1+2k)x+(1−k)y+(1+k)z+(1+3k)=0
If given family of plane is parallel to the line then (1+2k)α−(1−k)+(1+k)=0⇒α=−2k1+2kPerpendicular distance between x−1α=y+1−1=z1&(1+2k)x+(1−k)y+(1+k)z+(1+3k)=0is|(1+2k)(1)+(1−k)(−1)+(1+k)(0)+(1+3k)|√(1+2k)2+(1−k)2+(1+k)2=1√3⇒k=0,−32102⇒α=0,3219
