Anyone know?

Homework Statement I have a slab of conductor on the ground with thickness, a, and it extends in all directions infinitely. Then I have a slab of insulator above the conductor of thickness, a, and it also extends infinitely in all directions. The two slabs are a distance, 2a, from each...

Ok, thanks. What I ended up doing was turning the (x, y) = (a, b) + t(c - a, d - b) into y = mx + b. Then I solved for x and y. The reason I wanted t was to know whether the intersection was actually between the two points (0 <= t <= 1). But I can just plug the point I found back into...

I'm using the following equation to represent lines (x, y) = (start_x, start_y) + t((end_x, end_y) - (start_x, start_y)) I'm trying to find the interesection point of two lines written in this form. I have been able to solve for t and plug it back into the equation, but i get two values...
