no matter the given info, we must change it so that we have a direction
vectors and a point.

vector
eq. of a plane is:
* Fo + tm+ Sa

where:

1. So is a connects
vector that the known on the plane
point (x0.Y0,20)

origin.
2. In is the first
direction vector on the plane in:(a, b, c)
3. Ma is the 2nd direction vector on the plane m2 (d, e, f(

4.
I is the vector that
connects any on
point the plane with the

origin r (x, y, z)
=

S. Sit are the parameters produces

that points on the plane.
