Challenge Problems
Push your limits with advanced challenges
If a line has a direction vector of (3, 1, 2) and a plane defined by the normal vector (1, 2, 3), compute the angle between them.
💡 Hint: Start by calculating the dot product.
Given a = (4, -3, 2) and n = (1, 2, 2), determine if the line is parallel to the plane.
💡 Hint: Check the value after calculating the dot product!
