Question Number 200356 by sonukgindia last updated on 17/Nov/23

Commented by mr W last updated on 17/Nov/23

i guess you meant that the plane   x+8y−4z+k=0 should touch the  sphere x^2 +y^2 +z^2 +2y−3=0.

x^2 +(y+1)^2 +z^2 =2^2   center of sphere at (0,−1,0)  radius of sphere is 2.  distance from (0,−1,0) to the plane  should be 2.  ((1×0+8×(−1)−4×0+k)/( (√(1^2 +8^2 +(−4)^2 ))))=±2  k−8=±2×9  ⇒k=8±18=−10 or 26  Σk=−10+26=16 ✓

$${x}^{\mathrm{2}} +\left({y}+\mathrm{1}\right)^{\mathrm{2}} +{z}^{\mathrm{2}} =\mathrm{2}^{\mathrm{2}} \\ $$$${center}\:{of}\:{sphere}\:{at}\:\left(\mathrm{0},−\mathrm{1},\mathrm{0}\right) \\ $$$${radius}\:{of}\:{sphere}\:{is}\:\mathrm{2}. \\ $$$${distance}\:{from}\:\left(\mathrm{0},−\mathrm{1},\mathrm{0}\right)\:{to}\:{the}\:{plane} \\ $$$${should}\:{be}\:\mathrm{2}. \\ $$$$\frac{\mathrm{1}×\mathrm{0}+\mathrm{8}×\left(−\mathrm{1}\right)−\mathrm{4}×\mathrm{0}+{k}}{\:\sqrt{\mathrm{1}^{\mathrm{2}} +\mathrm{8}^{\mathrm{2}} +\left(−\mathrm{4}\right)^{\mathrm{2}} }}=\pm\mathrm{2} \\ $$$${k}−\mathrm{8}=\pm\mathrm{2}×\mathrm{9} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow{k}=\mathrm{8}\pm\mathrm{18}=−\mathrm{10}\:{or}\:\mathrm{26} \\ $$$$\Sigma{k}=−\mathrm{10}+\mathrm{26}=\mathrm{16}\:\checkmark \\ $$
