The correct answer is:
Given equations of plane are and
Now a vector perpendicular to both the planes is given by
For a point on the line of intersection of both the planes
let ,
so
i.e. a point on the line will be
So equation of line of intersection of both these planes will be
The DR's of are
Let the point be the foot of perpendicular from to the line
i.e.
or
If is , then in right anged triangle ,
Now
and
So required area of triangle
