- In the posted problems, three vectors a = (3 , - 2 , - 1 ) , b = (1, - 2 , 4 ) and c = (3 , 2 , - 5 ) are given, and it is asked to find the equation of the plane containing the vector 'a' and parallel to the vectors 'b' abd 'c'. In the second problem the position vectors of 'A' and 'B' are given as 4i + j - 2k and 5i + 2j + k respectively and we have to find the equation of the plane passing through 'A' and 'B' and and parallel to the vector 3i - j + 4 k. In the third problem we have to show that r = (i - j) + (2 i + k) and r = (2i - j) + (i + j - k) do not intersect. - Question (1): Find the equation of the plane containing the vector a = (3 , - 2 , - 1 ) and parallel to the vectors b = (1, - 2 , 4 ) and c = (3 , 2 , - 5 ) Question (2) : Find the equation of a ...
