The correct answer is: 136

Given,

A plane passes through the points (-1,k,0),(2,k,-1), (1,1,2) and is parallel to the line x-11=2y+12 =z+1-1,

So, on rearranging x-11=2y+12=z+1-1 we get,

x-11=y+121=z+1-1

Now given point : A(-1,k,0),B(2,k,-1),C(1,1,2) 

So, CA=-2i^+(k-1)j^-2k^

CB=i^+(k-1)j^-3k^

And CA×CB=i^j^k^-2k-1-21k-1-3

CA×CB=i^(-3k+3+2k-2)-j^(6+2)+k^(-2k+2-k+1)

CA×CB=i^(-3k+3+2k-2)-j^(6+2)+k^(-2k+2-k+1)

CA×CB=(1-k)i^-8j^+(3-3k)k^

The line x-11=y+121=z+1-1 is perpendicular to normal vector.

Now using the condition of perpendicular vector we get, 

1(1-k)+1(-8)+(-1)(3-3k)=0

1-k-8-3+3k=0

2k=10k=5

Hence, k2+1(k-1)(k-2)=264×3=136
