the plane is parallel to another plane 2 x 2 y + z = 0 2x-2y+z = 0 which mean that it also have similar form but gotta be added with a constant c c . we can say that the equation of our plane is 2 x 2 y + z + c = 0 2x-2y+z+c = 0 .

to get the value of c, we substitute a point that's passed by the plane : substitue ( 1 , 2 , 3 ) (1,-2,3) to 2 x 2 y + z + c = 0 2x-2y+z+c = 0 , we get c = 9 c = -9 .

now let's count the distance between a point ( 1 , 2 , 0 ) (-1,2,0) to the plane 2 x 2 y + z 9 = 0 2x-2y+z-9 = 0 using the formulation:

d = a x 0 + b y 0 + c z 0 + d a 2 + b 2 + c 2 d = \lvert \frac{a*x_0 + b*y_0 + c*z_0+d}{a^2+b^2+c^2} \rvert where ( x 0 , y 0 , z 0 ) (x_0,y_0,z_0) is the coordinate of the point.

by doing it,we get: d = 5 \boxed{d=5}

plane passes through a point and parallel to another plane eqn is a(x-x ^)+b(y-y^)+c(z-z ^) solve and compare with ax+by+cz+d=o u will get a,b,c values then find distance ans is 5
