See if guys can tackle this problem:
“1. The three lines below define a triangle. Find its area.
x = −11 + 5s,
y = s,
z = −2 + 2s;
x = 1 + 2u,
y = 1 − u,
z = −2 − 4u;
x = −2 + 3t,
y = −1 + 2t,
z = −8 + 6t.
-
The vertices of the triangle in question 1 are three vertices of a parallelogram.What are the possi- bilities for the fourth vertex?
-
Find the centroid of the triangle in question 1. It is the point of intersection of the three medians of the triangle, or it is the point on one of the medians, two-thirds of the way from the vertex to the midpoint of the opposite side.”
