How do you find the parametric equation through the point (6, 0, 10) and parallel to the plane ?
Answer & Explanation
Step 1
Any plane parallel to the plane will have an equation of the same form but equal to a different constant:
To force the point to be in the plane, substitute the point into equation [1] and solve for C:
The scalar equation of the plane parallel to the given plane is:
The vector equation of the plane is
Where are any two vectors in the plane.
Let's use equation [2] to find two other points in the plane:
Let
The vector from the point to the point is:
Let
The vector from point to the point is:
A vector equation of the plane is:
From the above equation, we can write a set of parametric equations:
NOTE: These are not unique equations, because we could have chosen other points and obtained different vectors.
