MA1104 Tutorial 2 (Week 4) : 1 2 1 X 1 3 Y+2 2 z+1 4 2 x+2 2 y 4 4

This document contains 10 problems related to lines, planes, and their intersections in 3D space. The problems involve finding parametric equations of lines, determining if lines intersect, finding points of intersection, finding equations of planes, finding distances, and verifying perpendicularity. Key steps include setting up and solving systems of equations involving direction ratios and using properties of lines and planes such as orthogonality and parallelism.

1. Find a set of parametric equations of the line which passes through the
point (2, 3, 4) and is perpendicular to the plane given by 3x + 2y z = 6.
2. Determine whether the lines are intersecting or skew. If they intersect,
find the point of intersection.
