For the following questions, say you were given a line and a plane as below

                Line: r(t)= < x(t), y(t), z(t) > = < t-2, t+1, 3t > ,        Plane:   : a(x+2) + b(y-3) - 4z = 2

                a)            What relationship would have to exist between scalars a and b for the line not to intersect with the plane?

                Hint 1) Plug in x, y, z given in the line into the plane equation.

                Hint 2) Say you were solving this equation and got the following. What would that indicate?

                                i)             t = 2:      ________________________________________________________

                                ii)            6 = –5:   ________________________________________________________

                                iii)           4 = 4:     ________________________________________________________

                                So what must be true about the coefficient of t? What also can’t be true about the constant term?

                b)            What relationship would have to exist between scalars a and b for the plane to contain the line?

                c)            Assuming the line is not contained in the plane but does intersect it, give an expression for the time t that the line intersects the plane. Also give the point of intersection.
                                (Both answers will have scalars a and b in them)

Recall that given a line L1 in the plane with slope m, a second line L2 is perpendicular to L1 if and only if the slope of L2 is − 1 m . Now consider the function h(x) = x^2 + 3/2x + 3. Among all of the lines tangent to the graph of h(x), there is exactly one which is perpendicular to the line given by y = −2x + 7. Write the equation of that line tangent to...
