Finding the volume in a cylinder that is intersected by a plane
I have a homework question that goes as follows.
Let be a cylinder and let P be the plane through (4, 0, 2), (0, 4, 2), and (-4, -4, 4). Compute the volume of C below the plane P.
So I have these points and I set up my where is a point in the plane and ⟨a, b, c⟩ is perpendicular.
I then got two vectors that go between two points, namely:
and
I then get the cross product of them to get which is the coefficient in my equation of the plane:
I think that this is the equation of my plane. Is it?
