    Finding the line of intersection of 2 planes

    n1 = <5, -2, -2> n2 = <1, -4, 2> n1 x n2 = <-12,-12,-18> mkay... so now (x, y, z) = (x0, y0, z0) + t(-12, -12, -18) and this point x = y -4 is used to find (x0,y0,z0)... I'm stuck, yuck.

    Solving a Dot Product Vector Problem (-1,0)

    Hello, I have this problem that asks the following Homework Statement Find two vectors v1 and v2 whose sum is (-1,0) where v1 is parallel to (5,-5) while v2 is perpendicular to (5,-5). Could someone "walk" me thought the steps to find v1 and v2... I'm confident I can make the...
