Let the line be the projection of the line in the plane . If is the distance of the point from , then is equal to ____.

Answer: 26

Solution

The given line passes through with direction , and the plane has normal .
Since , the line meets the plane, and that common point lies on the projection . Substituting in the plane equation gives , so and the point is .
The direction of is the part of lying in the plane:

so may be used.
With one has and , so
