Homework Statement
If the line l is given by the equations 2x-y+z=0, x+z-1=0, and if M is the point (1,3,-2), fine a Cartesian equation of the plane,
(a) passing through M and l
I don't get how I can find the directed vector of the plane
Homework Equations
This is a past paper question so the answer is given as x-2y-z+3=0
However I don't know how to get there.
The Attempt at a Solution
I have tried to get the solution assuming (2,-1,1) to be the directed vector and hence putting it into the equation,
2(x-1)-1(y-3)+(z+2)=0
However I get the wrong result so help regarding how to get the directed vector would help
