Math 118 - Calculus II Recitation 12 - Spring 2025

Chapter 10: Vectors and Coordinate Geometry in 3-Space

1. Let u =< 4, 2, 6 > and v =< −1, 2, 1 >. Find two vectors w and t such that w is parallel to v, t
is perpendicular to v and u = w + t .

2. Let u =< 1, 2, 5 > and v =< 3, 1, −1 >. Find the angle between the vectors and find |u × v|
without finding u × v, , then check your answer by finding u × v .

3. Let u =< 1, 2, −1 > and v =< 3, −1, 4 >. If a vector w makes an angle of π/4 with the positive
x−axis, and u · w = −1, v · w = 4, find the vector w.

4. Find the point of intersection of the plane 3x + 2y + z = 10 and the line passing through the
points P (1, 1, −1) and Q(2, 3, 4) .

5. Consider the line l : x = t + 3, y = 4t + 1, z = 2t ; t ∈ R and the plane P : x − y + 3z = −3 .

a) Find the point of intersection P0 of l and P.


b) Find parametric equations for the line l′ which is perpendicular to l and contained in P.

6. Consider the point P (3, 5, 1) and the line l : x = 2t − 1, y = −t + 2, z = −2t; t ∈ R.

a) Find the equation of the plane passing through P and perpendicular to l.


b) Find the equation of the plane passing through P and containing l.

7. Find a parametric equation of the line l that intersects both of the following lines perpendicularly:

l1 : x = 2t − 1, y = −t + 2, z = 3t + 1; t ∈ R
l2 : x = s + 5, y = 2s + 3, z = −s; s ∈ R

8. Find the distance

a) from Q(2, 3, 1) to the line x + y = 1, y + z = 2 .


b) from Q(1, 2, 0) to the plane 3x − 4y − 5z = 2 .
