Answer:
Option D
Explanation:
Key Idea length ofv projection of the line segment joining a1 and a2 on the plane r .n
= d is ∣(a2−a1)×n∣n∣∣
Length of projection the line segment joining the points (5, -1, 4 ) and (4,-1,3)
on the plane x+y+z = 7 is

AC=∣(a2−a1)×n∣n∣∣
AC=∣(−ˆi−ˆk)×(ˆi+ˆj+^k)∣∣i+j+k∣
AC=∣˜i−˜k∣√3
AC=√2√3
AC=√23
Alternative method
Clearly , DR's of AB are 4-5, -1+1, 3-4,
i.e. -1,0,-1
and DR's of normal to plane are 1,1,1. Now, let θ be the angle between the line and plane , then θ is given by
sinθ=∣−1+0−1∣√(−1)2+(−1)2√12+12+12
=2√2√3=√23

⇒sinθ=√23⇒cosθ=√1−sin2θ
= √1−23=1√3
Clearly, length of projection
= ABcosθ=√21√3 [ ∴AB=√2]
= =√23
