A plane P is parallel to two lines whose direction ratios are 2, 1 3 and 1, 2, 2 and it contains the point (2, 2, 2). Let P intersect the co-ordinate axes at the points A, B, C making the intercepts If V is the volume of the tetrahedron OABC, where O is the origin, and p =
+ , then the ordered pair (V, p) is equal to:

Normal of plane P : =
Equation of plane P which passes through (2, 2) is 4x – y – 3z – 12 = 0
Now, A (3, 0, 0), B (0, 12 0), C (0, 4)
Now, volume of tetrahedron OABC
(V, P) = (24, 13)

(a – 1) × 2 + (b – 2) × 5 + (g – 3) × 1 = 0
2a + 5b + g – 15 = 0
Also, P lie on line
a + 1 = 2λ
b – 2 = 5λ
g – 4 = λ
2 (2λ – 1) + 5 (5λ + 2) + λ + 4 – 15 = 0
4λ + 25λ + λ – 2 + 10 + 4 – 15 = 0
30λ – 3 = 0
a + b + g = (2λ – 1) + (5λ + 2) + (λ + 4)

Take
x = 2λ + 1, y = 3λ + 2, z = 4λ + 3
= (α − 2)
Now,
(α − 2) ⋅ 2 + (β − 3) ⋅3 + (γ − 4) ⋅ 4 = 0
2α − 4 + 3β − 9 + 4γ −16 = 0
⇒ 2α + 3β + 4γ = 29
