A hint to get started
Reflect a plane by retaining its intersection and reflecting one point
A,B have position vectors and . Line l1 goes through A parallel to . Plane Π1 is .
(i) Find the acute angle between l1 and Π1. marks
(ii) Find the position vector of the perpendicular foot N from B to Π1. Hence find the reflected point B′. marks
Plane Π2 contains B and l1.
(iii) Find Π2 in scalar-product form. marks
(iv) Find the Cartesian equation of intersection l2 of Π1,Π2. marks
(v) Π3 is the reflection of Π2 in Π1. Find an equation , with s,t real. marks
