The displacement vectors are and . Their cross product is , with Euclidean norm three. Thus either sign of
is a unit normal vector to the second plane, whose equation is . A direction vector for the intersection is the cross product of the two normal vectors:
It is orthogonal to each normal vector. Since both planes contain , the whole intersection line is , .
Perpendicular lines 2026-10-20
Two intersecting straight lines are perpendicular if their angle is . Their direction vectors have zero dot product.
