Mathematics20254 marksLong answer
In the beautiful town of Darjeeling in the Himalayan foothills, the city planning committee wants to construct two major roads to connect the various neighbourhoods. The two roads are represented by the equations $\frac{x+1}{3} = \frac{y+3}{5} = \frac{z+5}{7}$ and $\frac{x-2}{1} = \frac{y-4}{k} = \frac{z-6}{7}$. As an in charge of the planning committee, ensure that these roads lie on the same plane to facilitate efficient urban planning and infrastructure development.
(a)
For what value of k, will the construction meet the requirement?
(b)
Hence, find the equation of the plane containing these lines.
