Question

The radius of the circle in which the sphere $${x^2} + {y^2} + {z^2} + 2x - 2y - 4z - 19 = 0$$        is cut by the plane $$x + 2y + 2z + 7 = 0$$     is :

A. $$4$$
B. $$1$$
C. $$2$$
D. $$3$$  
Answer :   $$3$$
Solution :
Three Dimensional Geometry mcq solution image
Centre of sphere $$ = \left( { - 1,\,1,\,2} \right)$$
Radius of sphere $$\sqrt {1 + 1 + 4 + 19} = 5$$
Perpendicular distance from centre to the plane
$$\eqalign{ & OC = d = \left| {\frac{{ - 1 + 2 + 4 + 7}}{{\sqrt {1 + 4 + 4} }}} \right| = \frac{{12}}{3} = 4 \cr & A{C^2} = A{O^2} - O{C^2} \cr & A{C^2} = {5^2} - {4^2} = 9 \cr & AC = 3 \cr} $$
