  • I would like to thank you for this video. I had a very similar assignment question that for some reason I couldn't figure out for the life of me and after watching your video I found what I was doing wrong. Thank You.

  • Im glad it helped

  • thanks....for sharing...i understand now

  • I'm not sure I understand the question. In fact in the example the plane is defined as x + 2y - z = 5. This plane does not intersect with the point x=0;y=0;z=0. Substituting the values in (0 + 2*0 - 0) does not equal 5. Also saying your plane is positioned on x=15,y=1,z=8 does not make sense. If you are implying that your plane intersects all of these points then consider defining your plane as a sum of vectors (in rectangular coordinates if you wish) and then maybe you'll find your solution.

  • ok now i give dumb questions but i have to. where are rectangle plane coordinates?

    if my plane doesnt lay on x=0,y=0,z=0 ; if my rectangle plane is positioned in different place on x=15,y=1,z=8

    in this case i would need to plug rectangle plane coordinates, and only after that plug vector PQ coordinates right? you have plugged only vector coordinates. so where are plane's coordinates? (i know rectangle plane itself would not have any coordinate but it's normal would.)

  • Thank you this was useful.

  • If you know the x,y, and z components of 2 different points on the same 3D line, could you find the x and y coordinate of a third point on the same line with a given z?

    If so, could you please give me two simple algebraic expressions solving for x and for y?

  • bruv can you blow your nose before you make a video so we understand what your on about

  • yeah its wes haha who you?

  • @tsaiwes99 LOL is it wes tsai?

  • this should be a ubc question!

  • @civictuner91 haha watching this for the midterm
