D/5(58)—1200 (Turn Over)e yy Write the direction cosines of the line z=2 and y =1, and also write the coordinates of a point on this line. _ R @ Do the origin and the point (1, l, 1) lie on the same side, or on different sides, of the plane x+y+z-2=0 ? Explain. : (ff) Name the surface x? 4y? +27 ~x-2y-3z=0, and any four points -through which this surface is passing. ; (g) Write the equation of a sphere through the circle x? +y?-x=0; z=0. Write the equation of a cone whose vertex is (0,0, 0). i @ How will you distinguish that represents a generator of a cone or a generator of a cylinder?
