questions acctuly finding the equation of a plane given a position vector 2,1,1, and the perpendicular (3,-1,2) but after i get the normal i think i can do it from there thanks

What's the difference between a 'perpendicular' and a 'normal'? If (3,-1,2) is a vector that's perpendicular to the plane, then it's a normal.
