Find the volume of thetetrahedron with vertices at the points a = (1, 0, 0),b = (0, 1, 0), c = (0, 0, 1), and d = (2, 3, 5).Problem 1 Let Π be the plane in R3passingthrough the points (2, 0, 0), (1, 1, 0), and (−3, 0, 2).Let ℓ be the line in R3passing through the point(1, 1, 1) in the direction (2, 2, 2).(i) Find a parametric representation for the line ℓ.Parametric representation: t(2, 2, 2) + (1, 1, 1).The line ℓ passes through the origin (t = −1/2).Hence an equivalent representation is s(2, 2, 2).Problem 1 Let Π be the plane in R3passingthrough the points (2, 0, 0), (1, 1, 0), and (−3, 0, 2).Let ℓ be the line in R3passing through the point(1, 1, 1) in the direction (2, 2, 2).(ii) Find a parametric representation for the plane Π.Since the plane Π contains the points a = (2, 0, 0),b = (1, 1, 0), and c = (−3, 0, 2), the vectorsb −a = (−1, 1, 0) and c − a = (−5, 0, 2) areparallel to Π. Clearly, b − a is not parallel toc − a. Hence we get a parametric representationt1(b − a) + t2(c − a) + a == t1(−1, 1, 0) + t2(−5, 0, 2) + (2, 0, 0).Problem 1 Let Π be the plane in R3passingthrough the points a = (2, 0, 0), b = (1, 1, 0), andc = (−3, 0, 2). Let ℓ be the line in R3passingthrough the point (1, 1, 1) in the direction (2, 2, 2).(iii) Find an equation for the plane Π.Vectors b − a = (−1, 1, 0) and c − a = (−5, 0, 2) are parallelto Π =⇒ their cross product p is orthogonal to Π.p =i j k−1 1 0−5 0 2=1 00 2i −−1 0−5 2j +−1 1−5 0k= 2i + 2j + 5k = (2, 2, 5).A point x = (x, y, z) is in the plane Π if and only ifp · (x − a) = 0 ⇐⇒ 2(x − 2) + 2y + 5z = 0⇐⇒ 2x + 2y + 5z = 4Problem 1 Let Π be the plane in R3passingthrough the points (2, 0, 0), (1, 1, 0), and (−3, 0, 2).Let ℓ be the line in R3passing through the point(1, 1, 1) in the direction (2, 2, 2).(iv) Find the point where the line ℓ intersects theplane Π.Let x0= (x, y, z) be the point of intersection.Then x0= s(2, 2, 2) for some s ∈ R and also2x + 2y + 5z = 4.2(2s) + 2(2s) + 5(2s) = 4 ⇐⇒ s = 2/9Hence x0= (4/9, 4/9, 4/9).Problem 1 Let Π be the plane in R3passingthrough the points (2, 0, 0), (1, 1, 0), and (−3, 0, 2).Let ℓ be the line in R3passing through the point(1, 1, 1) in the direction (2, 2, 2).(v) Find the angle between the line ℓ and the plane Π.Let φ denote the angle between vectors u = (2, 2, 2)and p = (2, 2, 5). Our angle is ψ = |π/2 − φ|.cos φ =u · p|u||p|=18√12√33=3√11ψ =π2− arccos3√11= arcsin3√11Problem 1 Let Π be the plane in R3passingthrough the points (2, 0, 0), (1, 1, 0), and (−3, 0, 2).Let ℓ be the line in R3passing through the point(1, 1, 1) in the direction (2, 2, 2).(vi) Find the distance from the origin to the plane Π.The equation of the plane Π is 2 x + 2y + 5z = 4.Hence the distance from a point (x0, y0, z0) to Πequals|2x0+ 2y0+ 5z0− 4|√22+ 22+ 52=|2x0+ 2y0+ 5z0− 4|√33.The distance from the origin to the plane is equal to4/√33.Bonus Problem 5. Find the volume of thetetrahedron with vertices a = (1, 0, 0),b = (0, 1, 0), c = (0, 0, 1), and d = (2, 3, 5).Vectors x = b − a = (−1, 1, 0), y = c − a = (−1, 0, 1), andz = d − a = (1, 3, 5) are represented by adjacent edges of thetetrahedron.It follows that the volume of the tetrahedron is16x · (y × z).x · (y × z) =−1 1 0−1 0 11 3 5= (−1)0 13 5− 1−1 11 5= 9.Thus the volume of the tetrahedron is16x · (y × z)=16· 9 = 1.5.xyzParallelepiped is a prism.(Volume) = (area of the base) × (height)Area of the base = |y × z|Volume = |x · (y × z)|xyzTetrahedron is a pyramid.(Volume) =13(area of the base) × (height)Area of the base =12|y × z|=⇒ Volume =16|x · (y × z)|Problem 2.
