TopicVectors: Lines & Planes

10 The line \(l\) has equation \(\mathbf { r } = \mathbf { i } + 2 \mathbf { j } - \mathbf { k } + \lambda ( 3 \mathbf { i } - 2 \mathbf { j } + 2 \mathbf { k } )\) and the plane \(p\) has equation \(2 x + 3 y - 5 z = 18\).
  1. Find the position vector of the point of intersection of \(l\) and \(p\).
  2. Find the acute angle between \(l\) and \(p\).
  3. A second plane \(q\) is perpendicular to the plane \(p\) and contains the line \(l\). Find the equation of \(q\), giving your answer in the form \(a x + b y + c z = d\).
