In R3, consider the planes P1: y = 0 and P2: x + z = 1. Let P3 be a plane, different from P1 and P2, which passes through the intersection of P1 and P2. If the distance of the point (0, 1, 0) from P3 is 1 and the distance of a point (α, β, γ) from P3 is 2, then which of the following relations is(are) true?

Equation of plane P3 will be (x + z – 1) + λy = 0
⇒ x + λy + z – 1 = 0
Distance from (0, 1, 0) is equal to 1
⇒ (λ – 1)2 = λ2 + 2 ⇒ λ2 – 2λ + 1 = λ2 + 2
Plane will be x – + z – 1 = 0 ⇒ 2x – y + 2z – 2 = 0
Distance from (α, β, γ) = 2
⇒ = 2 ⇒ 2α – β + 2γ – 2 = ± 6
⇒ 2α – β + 2γ = 8 or 2α – β + 2γ = – 4.
