Homework Statement
Prove that r1 and r2 intersect at (1,1,3).
Let r1 and r2 be defined as:
r1(t)=t^2i+tj+3t^3k
r2(t)=(t−1)i+(1/4)t^2j+(5−t)k
Homework Equations
Intersection is derived from r1=r2.
The Attempt at a Solution
I only formally get to this point and then start messing up. It gets messy and I know I'm not doing the right thing.
r1=r2 --> t^2i+tj+3t^3k = (t−1)i+(1/4)t^2j+(5−t)k
