For a vector normal to the plane we can choose the cross product of two vectors in the plane:
For two vectors in the plane we can choose e.g. u PQ 2,0, 2 and v=PR 2, 4, 1

Question: How do I decide if two planes are parallel?
Answer: The normal must be parallel. Are the planes 2x y z 1 and 4x 2 y 2 z 3 parallel? Problem : Find the line of intersection of the two planes x2 y z 0 and 2 x 3 y 2 z 0
