The direction cosines of the normal are in the ratio 1:1:1 as the normal is equally inclined to the coordinate axes. Hence the direction cosines of normal will be 1/root3 , 1/root3 , 1/root3

equ. of plane is given as : lx+my+nz =p where l,m,n r direction cosines & p is the distance frm origin.

so , equ. is 1/roo3 x + 1/root3 y + 1/root3 z=3root 3

i.e. x+y+z=9
