Let L be the foot of perpendicular segment from the point P (x,y,z) on XY plane
Now since L is the foot of perpendicular on XY plane so z coordinate will be zero so the point L will be (x,y,0)
then distance between these two will be = = |z|
The equation ( x – 1 ) ( x – 2 ) = 0 represents , in three dimensional space , a pair of parallel planes
( x – 1 ) ( x – 2 ) = 0 => ( x – 1 )=0 , ( x – 2 ) = 0
x =1 and x=2
According to the equation ax +by +cz = d and by the formula we have both the planes represent pair of parallel planes
