A line has Cartesian equations x−p = (y+2)/q = 3−z and a plane has equation r ∙ [1,−1,−2] = −3. In the case where the angle θ between the line and the plane satisfies sin⁡θ=1/√6 and the line intersects the plane at z = 0. Find p and q.

This question gives hints as to how you should solve it. Because it tells you the angle between the line and the plane, this should indicate that doing something to do with finding the angle between the line...
