Hi!
I'm having trouble with this question, any help would be much appreciated! :)
Q1: Given the three vectors:
n1 = (1, 2, 3)
n2 = (3, 2, 1)
n3 = (1, −2, −5)
Find the intersection of the three planes ni*x = 0. What happens if n3 = (1, −2, −4)? Why is this different?

Definition/Summary
A conic section (or conic) is any curve which results from a plane slicing through an upright circular cone.
If the slope of the plane is zero, it cuts only one half of the cone, and the conic is a circle (or a point, if the plane goes through the apex of the cone).
If the...
