AI Thread Summary
The discussion revolves around a poorly worded question regarding the Miller indices of a triangular plane within a cubic cell. Participants note that the question lacks clarity and that planes do not have corners, making it difficult to provide a meaningful answer. Additionally, there is a consensus that such questions should be posted in the Homework & Coursework section, where assistance is given only after the original poster demonstrates effort in solving the problem. The overall sentiment suggests that clearer and more structured questions are necessary for effective assistance. Properly framing questions is essential for productive discussions in academic forums.

Suppose i have a plane in a cubic cell that cut across the following intercepts: x=-1, y= -5/12 z=parallel. What is the miller indices of a triangular plane located at the top left corner of this rectangular plane?

Can anyone explain how to solve this? answer is not important.

The question does not make sense, or is very poorly worded. And planes do not have corners.

Furthermore, questions of this kind belong in the Homework & Coursework section of the forum, and help is only provided after the OP shows some effort towards solving the problem.
