| Topic | Vectors 3D & Lines |
| Type | Foot of perpendicular from origin to line |
| Difficulty | Standard +0.3 This is a standard Further Maths question on finding the perpendicular distance from a point to a line in 3D. It requires knowing the vector method (using dot product to find the foot of perpendicular) or the formula approach, which are well-practiced techniques. Slightly above average difficulty due to being Further Maths content, but it's a routine application of a standard method. |
