JEE Main 6 April 2023, Shift 2, Maths Q15

Question 15 of 90 in this shift, Maths question 15 of 30, Section A.

A plane P contains the line of intersection of the plane r⃗⋅(i^+j^+k^)=6\vec{r}\cdot\left(\hat{i}+\hat{j}+\hat{k}\right)=6 and r⃗⋅(2i^+3j^+4k^)=−5\vec{r}\cdot\left(2\hat{i}+3\hat{j}+4\hat{k}\right)=-5. If P passes through the point (0,2,−2)(0, 2, -2), then the square of distance of the point (12,12,18)(12, 12, 18) from the plane P is
