  • In this video we look at a common exercise where we are asked to find the line of intersection of two planes in space. As long as the two planes are not parallel to each other, there will be a line of intersection. In this video we go through the algebra for how to find this line of intersection.

    I'm using this to find out how many each of three different crop seeds I should buy in Stardew Valley...... it feels so strange using math like this in a casual scenario lol

    • @Patrick_Knowlton
      @Patrick_Knowlton 3 года назад +42

      ok so here's how it went down:
      Variables:
      x=number of eggplant seeds
      y=number of bok choy seeds
      z=number of yam seeds
      Formulas:
      x+y+z=104 (number of farm tiles I had plowed)
      20x+50y+60z=4000 (each number is the price of one seed, and my budget was $4000)
      My process:
      1. Solved for x
      x+y+z=104 -> x=104-y-z
      20x+50y+60z=4000 -> x=200-2.5y-3z
      2. Used both of these to solve for z
      104-y-z=200-2.5y-3z -> 2z=-1.5y+96 -> z=-0.75y+48
      3. Plugged in z to get x
      x=104-y-z -> x=104-y-(-0.75y+48) -> x=-0.25y+56
      4. And obviously y=y
      5. I chose a random number for y, to begin with (20).
      y=20
      x=-0.25y+56 -> x=-0.25(20)+56 -> x=-5+56 -> x=51
      z=-0.75y+48 -> z=-0.75(20)+48 -> z=-15+48 -> z=33
      So in the end, I bought my 104 seeds; 51 eggplants, 20 bok choy, and 33 yams. It cost me exactly my $4000 budget. It was incredibly cathartic and satisfying to reach my answer!

  • @priyanshukhandelwal2908
    @priyanshukhandelwal2908 Год назад +2

    We can find the cross product of these two plane vectors(normal vectors) and then just put x or y or z = 0 and then we will have two equations (planes) in terms of x and y..(if we put z=0) from there we can find value of x, y.... Hence we will have a point (x, y, 0) on line of intersection and a vector parallel to line of intersection... Now we can easily find line of intersection

  • @gurra1351

    Another easy way to do it would be to get the vectors of the two planes, n1 and n2. And by them create an orthogonal vector through cross product. So n1 x n2 = v or whatever you wanna call the cross vector. Since it's a line we "add" the vector with the corresponding point of the line.
    Side question, is it that important to get the point you got there or is it just adequate to get any arbitrary point on the line and then add the vector?

    A much easier method to find the direction vector of the line of intersection would be to take the cross product of the normal vectors of both lines. From there, you can just generate a point using the plane equations and you have a line.

    • @fireflylectures
      @fireflylectures  8 лет назад +24

      +Song Ji Hyo For any choice of y, obviously it's equal to itself. It's impossible for y to NOT equal y. But I think your underlying question may be why would we do such a thing... To answer that, remember that we are we are trying to write x, y, and z in terms of a parameter which controls all three variables. We were able to write x in terms of y, and z in terms of y. It would be helpful to also have y in terms of y, but this is immediate as y=y. Now since x, y, and z are all in terms of the same variable, we can call that variable (on the right hand side) t instead of y for clarify, and then we will have a set of parametric equations. Lastly, note there is nothing special about y. We could have taken the same approach and wrote all three equations in terms of x or z instead. They would have had different parametrizations, but would have sketched the same line.

    • @EagleLogic
      @EagleLogic 7 лет назад +1

      I rarely see parametric equations where its "y=t" or "x=t" so I am not sure how this method would work if one of the parametric equation aren't so simple.

    i'll give a great hint for you guys
    point of intersection of two lines (1 dimension objects in 2 dimensional space. which intersects into a 0 dimensional object)
    in the solution, you have to substitute variables 2 times to solve for 2 variables
    line of intersection of two planes (2 dimensional objects in 3 dimensional space. which intersects into a 1 dimensional object)
    in the solution, you have to substitute variables 3 times to solve for 3 variables
    dont you notice a pattern?
    you could technically use this pattern for solving for Nth dimensional objects but those are impractical in our 3d universe

      Not sure I follow. You mean if you are trying to determine if/when two lines intersect instead of two planes? If so, no that would not work the same way. While planes are likely to intersect (the only way they wouldn't would be if they were parallel), two 3D lines will rarely intersect -- plus the equations are not written in the same form as equations of planes.
