Before finding the distance of a point from a plane by the vector method, the plane must be in
Anormal form
Bintercept form
Cparametric form
Dsymmetric form
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: A. normal form
Only in normal form does the constant term equal the distance of the origin, which the method uses.
