1 The plane \(p\) has equation \(\mathbf { r } . ( \mathbf { i } - 3 \mathbf { j } + 4 \mathbf { k } ) = 4\) and the line \(l _ { 1 }\) has equation \(\mathbf { r } = 2 \mathbf { j } - \mathbf { k } + t ( 3 \mathbf { i } + \mathbf { j } + 2 \mathbf { k } )\). The line \(l _ { 2 }\) is parallel to \(p\) and perpendicular to \(l _ { 1 }\), and passes through the point with position vector \(\mathbf { i } + 4 \mathbf { j } + 2 \mathbf { k }\). Find the equation of \(l _ { 2 }\), giving your answer in the form \(\mathbf { r } = \mathbf { a } + t \mathbf { b }\).
