1. Find the area of the triangle formed by the three vertices A = (0, 4, 4),
B = (2, −6, −5) and C = (−3, −5, 6).
2. Find a set of parametric equations for the line passing through the point
(2, 4, 6) that is perpendicular to the plane x − y + 3z = 7.
(a) The plane contains the point (6, 3, 2) and is perpendicular to the vector
h−2, 1, 5i.
(b) The plane contains the point (3, 5, −1) and contains the line
x = 4 − t, y = 2t − 1, z = −3t.
x + y + z = 1, x + 2y + 2z = 1.
