Questions: Let \({F_{\bf{1}}}\) and \({F_{\bf{2}}}\) be 4-dimensional flats in \({\mathbb{R}^{\bf{6}}}\), and suppose that \({F_{\bf{1}}} \cap {F_{\bf{2}}} \ne \phi \). What are the possible dimension of \({F_{\bf{1}}} \cap {F_{\bf{2}}}\)?
The dimension D of the solution set is, \(2 \le D \le 4\).

Question 3: Repeat Exercise 1 where \(m\) is the minimum value of f on \(S\) instead of the maximum value.
Let\({v_1} = \left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}1\\3\\{ - 6}\end{array}} \right]\),\({v_{\bf{2}}} = \left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}{\bf{7}}\\3\\{ - {\bf{5}}}\end{array}} \right]\), \({v_{\bf{3}}} = \left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}{\bf{3}}\\{\bf{9}}\\{ - {\bf{2}}}\end{array}} \right]\), \({\bf{a}} = \left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}{\bf{0}}\\{\bf{0}}\\{\bf{9}}\end{array}} \right]\), \({\bf{b}} = \left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}{1.4}\\{{\bf{1}}.{\bf{5}}}\\{ - {\bf{3}}.{\bf{1}}}\end{array}} \right]\), and \({\bf{x}}\left( t \right) = {\bf{a}} + t{\bf{b}}\)for \(t \ge {\bf{0}}\).Find the point where the ray\({\bf{x}}\left( t \right)\)intersects the plane that contains the triangle with vertices\({v_1}\),\({v_{\bf{2}}}\), and\({v_{\bf{3}}}\). Is this point inside the triangle?
Question: Let \({{\bf{p}}_{\bf{1}}} = \left( {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}{\bf{2}}\\{ - {\bf{3}}}\\{\bf{1}}\\{\bf{2}}\end{array}} \right)\), \({{\bf{p}}_{\bf{2}}} = \left( {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}{\bf{1}}\\{\bf{2}}\\{ - {\bf{1}}}\\{\bf{3}}\end{array}} \right)\), \({{\bf{n}}_{\bf{1}}} = \left( {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}{\bf{1}}\\{\bf{2}}\\{\bf{4}}\\{\bf{2}}\end{array}} \right)\), and \({{\bf{n}}_{\bf{2}}} = \left( {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}{\bf{2}}\\{\bf{3}}\\{\bf{1}}\\{\bf{5}}\end{array}} \right)\), let \({H_{\bf{1}}}\) be the hyperplane in \({\mathbb{R}^{\bf{4}}}\) through \({{\bf{p}}_{\bf{1}}}\) with normal \({{\bf{n}}_{\bf{1}}}\), and let \({H_{\bf{2}}}\) be the hyperplane through \({{\bf{p}}_{\bf{2}}}\) with normal \({{\bf{n}}_{\bf{2}}}\). Give an explicit description of \({H_{\bf{1}}} \cap {H_{\bf{2}}}\). (Hint: Find a point p in \({H_{\bf{1}}} \cap {H_{\bf{2}}}\) and two linearly independent vectors \({{\bf{v}}_{\bf{1}}}\) and \({{\bf{v}}_{\bf{2}}}\) that span a subspace parallel to the 2-dimensional flat \({H_{\bf{1}}} \cap {H_{\bf{2}}}\).)
TrueType fonts, created by Apple Computer and Adobe Systems, use quadratic Bezier curves, while PostScript fonts, created by Microsoft, use cubic Bezier curves. The cubic curves provide more flexibility for typeface design, but it is important to Microsoft that every typeface using quadratic curves can be transformed into one that used cubic curves. Suppose that \({\mathop{\rm w}\nolimits} \left( t \right)\) is a quadratic curve, with control points \({{\mathop{\rm p}\nolimits} _0},{{\mathop{\rm p}\nolimits} _1},\) and \({{\mathop{\rm p}\nolimits} _2}\).
Let\(T\)be a tetrahedron in “standard” position, with three edges along the three positive coordinate axes in\({\mathbb{R}^3}\), and suppose the vertices are\(a{{\bf{e}}_1}\),\(b{{\bf{e}}_2}\),\(c{{\bf{e}}_{\bf{3}}}\), and 0, where\(\left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}{{{\bf{e}}_1}}&{{{\bf{e}}_2}}&{{{\bf{e}}_3}}\end{array}} \right] = {I_3}\). Find formulas for the barycentric coordinates of an arbitrary point\({\bf{p}}\)in\({\mathbb{R}^3}\).
