Find the equation of the plane that intersects the point (2, 3, 4) and has a normal vector (1, 1, 1). Derive it in all forms.
💡 Hint: Explore how each form derives from the normal vector and the coordinates provided.
Given the plane 2x - y + 3z + 5 = 0 and another plane x + 2y - z - 7 = 0, find the angle between them.
💡 Hint: The angle between planes can be derived from the angle between their normals.
