Find the coordinates of the point of intersection between the line L:(-i+j-5k)+v(i+j+2k) and the plane π: r.(i+2j+3k)=4.

By inspection we can tell that the line and the plane are not parallel. Since the dot product between the direction vector of the line with the perpendicular vector of the plane was not equal to 0 (i.e. b...
