FAQs on Plane and its Properties - Mathematics Optional Notes for UPSC
| 1. What are the basic properties of a plane in geometry? |  |
Ans. In geometry, a plane is a flat, two-dimensional surface that extends infinitely in all directions. The basic properties of a plane include having no thickness, being defined by at least three non-collinear points, and containing an infinite number of points.
| 2. How is a plane defined in terms of its equation? | |
Ans. A plane in three-dimensional space can be defined by an equation of the form Ax + By + Cz = D, where A, B, and C are the coefficients of the variables x, y, and z, respectively, and D is a constant.
| 3. What is the relationship between two planes in space? | |
Ans. Two planes in space can be parallel, intersecting at a line, or coinciding with each other. The relationship between two planes is determined by the angle between their normal vectors. If the normal vectors are parallel, the planes are either parallel or coincident.
| 4. How can the distance between a point and a plane be calculated? | |
Ans. The distance between a point and a plane can be calculated using the formula: distance = |Ax + By + Cz - D| / √(A^2 + B^2 + C^2), where (x, y, z) are the coordinates of the point, and A, B, C, and D are the coefficients of the plane equation.
| 5. How many points determine a unique plane in space? | |
Ans. In three-dimensional space, a unique plane is determined by at least three non-collinear points. If the points are collinear, they do not uniquely determine a plane, as they lie on the same line.
