Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose we a point P(x,y,z) such that its distance from either the point A(3,4,-5) or B(-2,1,4) is the same.

Using this information we can formula:

distance AP = distance BP

first, let's find the distance from AP, using the distance formula.

r = \sqrt{(x_1 - x_2)^2 + (y_1 - y_2)^2 + (z_1 - z_2)^2}

AP = \sqrt{(3 - x_2)^2 + (4 - y_2)^2 + (-5 - z_2)^2}

similarly, we can find the distance BP

BP = \sqrt{(-2 - x_2)^2 + (1 - y_2)^2 + (4 - z_2)^2}

since both distances are exactly the same we can equate them

AP = BP

\sqrt{(3 - x_2)^2 + (4 - y_2)^2 + (-5 - z_2)^2} = \sqrt{(-2 - x_2)^2 + (1 - y_2)^2 + (4 - z_2)^2}

we can simplify it a bit squaring both sides, and getting rid of the subscripts.

(3 - x)^2 + (4 - y)^2 + (-5 - z)^2 = (-2 - x)^2 + (1 - y)^2 + (4 - z)^2

what we have done here is formulated an equation which consists of any point P that will have the same distance from (3,4,-5) and (-2,1,4).

To put it more concretely,

This is the equation of the the plane from that consists of all points (P) from which the distance from both (3,4,-5) and (-2,1,4) are equal.

Answer:

m∠ADC = 132°

Step-by-step explanation:

From the figure attached,

By applying sine rule in ΔABD,

\frac{\text{sin}(\angle ABD)}{\text{AD}}=\frac{\text{sin}(\angle ADB)}{AB}

\frac{\text{sin}(120)}{35}=\frac{\text{sin}(\angle ADB)}{30}

sin(∠ADB) = \frac{30\text{sin}(120)}{35}

                 = 0.74231

m∠ADB = \text{sin}^{-1}(0.74231)

             = 47.92°

             ≈ 48°

m∠ADC + m∠ADB = 180° [Linear pair of angles]

m∠ADC + 48° = 180°

m∠ADC = 180° - 48°

m∠ADC = 132°
