    Calc III: Vector parallel to the line of intersection

    Homework Statement Hi there, Two points on the sphere S of radius 1 have spherical coordinates P: \phi = 0.35 \pi, \theta = 0.8 \pi and Q: \phi = 0.7 \pi, \theta = 0.75 \pi. Find a vector parallel to the line of intersection of the tangent planes to S at the points P and Q. 2. The...
