Paragraphs. Each Question Has Only One Correct Answer Among The Four Given Options (A), (B), (C) And
(D).

Consider a line

Paragraph For Questions 11 & 13

and a plane

11. The angle between the line and the plane is

12. The position vector of the point of intersection of the line and the plane is

13. The position vector of the point on the given line whose distance from the plane is

units is

Paragraph For Questions 14 & 16

The vector equation of a plane is a relation satisfied by position vectors of all the points on the plane. If P is a plane
and is a unit vector through origin which is perpendicular to the plane P then vector equation of the plane must be
where d represents perpendicular distance of plane P from origin.

be the foot of perpendicular from A to the plane

16. The position vector of the image of the point

in the plane

= d must be

must be
