JEE Main 15 April 2023, Shift 1, Maths Q29

Question 29 of 90 in this shift, Maths question 29 of 30, Section B.

Let the plane P contain the line

2x+y-z-3=0=5x-3y+4z+9

and be parallel to the line

\frac{x+2}{2}=\frac{3-y}{-4}=\frac{z-7}{5}

. Then the distance of the point A

(8,-1,-19)

from the plane P measured parallel to the line

\frac{x}{-3}=\frac{y-5}{4}=\frac{2-z}{-12}

is equal to ______.
