(i) \(\overline{OP}\)= 4i - 2j + 5k

(ii) Then is perpendicular unit vector to the required plane is

\(\frac{\overline{OP}}{OP}=\frac{4i-2j+5k}{\sqrt{16+4+25}}\\=\frac{4i-2j+5k}{\sqrt{45}}\)

The perpendicular distance from the origin is

\(\sqrt{16+4+25}=\sqrt{45}\)

Vector equation of the Plane can be written as

\(\bar{r}.\bar{m}=d⇒\bar{r}.\frac{4i-2j+5k}{\sqrt{45}}\\=\sqrt{45}{}\)

⇒ \(\bar{r}.4i-2j+5k=45\)

Cartesian from is 4x – 2y + 5z = 45
