Homework Statement


Let the point A and v1,v2,v3 non-coplanar vectors.
Let the plane
{\pi _1})P=A+{\lambda _1}{v_1}+{\lambda _2}{v_2}

Consider any vector u non-colinear with v3 and the plane:
{\pi _2})P=A+{\lambda _3}{v_3}+{\lambda _4}u

2. Task
Work out the equation of the line
r={\pi _1}\cap {\pi _2}

The Attempt at a Solution


No idea how to start. I just know that the point A belongs to both planes and the point A belongs to a line with the equation form of: A+\lambda v but I don't know what to do next.

Thanks!

Find a vector, n1, normal to plane π1, and a vector, n2, normal to plane π2.

How is the line of intersection of the two planes oriented w.r.t. these two normal vectors, n1 and n2 ?
 
Prove $$\int\limits_0^{\sqrt2/4}\frac{1}{\sqrt{x-x^2}}\arcsin\sqrt{\frac{(x-1)\left(x-1+x\sqrt{9-16x}\right)}{1-2x}} \, \mathrm dx = \frac{\pi^2}{8}.$$ Let $$I = \int\limits_0^{\sqrt 2 / 4}\frac{1}{\sqrt{x-x^2}}\arcsin\sqrt{\frac{(x-1)\left(x-1+x\sqrt{9-16x}\right)}{1-2x}} \, \mathrm dx. \tag{1}$$ The representation integral of ##\arcsin## is $$\arcsin u = \int\limits_{0}^{1} \frac{\mathrm dt}{\sqrt{1-t^2}}, \qquad 0 \leqslant u \leqslant 1.$$ Plugging identity above into ##(1)## with ##u...
