Ex: Find the Equation of a Plane Given a Point in the Plane and a Parallel Plane

This video explains how to find the equation of a plane in standard form given a line the plane contains and the equation of a parallel plane.

Bro... Thank you! Sometimes I think Math teachers should just come to class and play videos off YouTube, it would be much more productive.

if you use the normal vector arent you finding the equation of the line that contains the normal vector, or in other words a plane perpendicular to the plane instead

I thought parallel planes didn't have the same normal vector though? My prof taught us that if there is a scalar multiple then its parallel, but it isn't the same vector.

[josephsheff]

when you say normal vector to plane, that means the same as orthogonal or perpindicular right??

[wonbas]

But what if it was perpendicular to the plane? It looks like you used the same method for parallel and perpendicular?

[Algotify]

What if the point is in origin(0, 0, 0). Is the constant always 0 then?

[Danyboyx]

thank you very much. Really needed this.

can u make a video on plane containing two points and parllel to a line

[chiprecious]

does anyone really understand the diagrams of the planes? coz i'm getting the calculations, but very difficult to relate the diagrams, so wanna know if i'm the only one lost on them

[sebastiancastro]

Excuse me, but that plane not containing that point (4, 7, -7), in the equation x-5y-4z= -3 -> 4=-3

Thank you, I was having such a hard time with this concept for some reason. The visual helped so much
