Problem

In R3\mathbb R^3, let LL be a straight line passing through the origin. Suppose that all the points on LL are at a constant distance from the two planes P1:x+2y−z+1=0P_1:x+2y-z+1=0 and P2:2x−y+z−1=0P_2:2x-y+z-1=0. Let MM be the locus of the feet of the perpendiculars drawn from the points on LL to the plane P1P_1. Which of the following points lie(s) on MM?
