Problems from Distance between a straight line and a plane in space

Calculate the distance between the straight line and the plane:

r:(x,y,z)=(2,1,0)+k(1,43)

π:x+y+2z1=0

See development and solution

Development:

Let's consider the governing vector of the straight line, v=(1,4,3), and the normal vector of the plane, n=(1,1,2) and we do the scalar product: (1,4,3)(1,1,2)=10 Therefore the straight line and the plane are not parallel and d(r,π)=0.

Solution:

d(r,π)=0
