 Normal vector to the given plane be

2 i ^ j ^ + 3 k ^ s o                   

Equation of line QS :

x 1 2 = y 3 1 = z 4 1 = λ

So let P ( 2 λ + 1 , λ + 3 , λ + 4 )  

Now P lies on given plane so

4 λ + 2 + λ 3 + 8 λ + 4 + 3 = 0  

So, S (-3, 5, 2)

also given R lies on given plane so

6 – 5 + γ + 3 = 0 so   γ = -4

So, R (3, 5, -4)

SR2 = 72
