1 The point A has coordinates \(( 2,5,4 )\) and the line BC has equation $$\mathbf { r } = \left( \begin{array} { c } 8
25
43 \end{array} \right) + \lambda \left( \begin{array} { c } 4
15
25 \end{array} \right)$$ You are given that \(\mathrm { AB } = \mathrm { AC } = 15\).

1. Show that the coordinates of one of the points B and C are (4, 10, 18). Find the coordinates of the other point. These points are B and C respectively.
2. Find the equation of the plane ABC in cartesian form.
3. Show that the plane containing the line BC and perpendicular to the plane ABC has equation \(5 y - 3 z + 4 = 0\). The point D has coordinates \(( 1,1,3 )\).
4. Show that \(| \overrightarrow { B C } \times \overrightarrow { A D } | = \sqrt { 7667 }\) and hence find the shortest distance between the lines \(B C\) and \(A D\).
5. Find the volume of the tetrahedron ABCD .
