Determine the equation of a plane that passes through the point (2, -1, 3) and has a normal vector (4, 5, 6).
💡 Hint: Substituting the point appropriately will help in forming the equation.
Discuss the intersection of two planes given by the equations x + 2y + 3z + 4 = 0 and 2x - y + z - 2 = 0. Analyze their normal vectors to find the angle between them.
💡 Hint: Parallel planes will have a dot product of 1; here, use the angles to measure their intersection.
