Avg difficulty 2.5

Find the equation of each of the following geometric objects.

  1. The plane parallel to the xyxy-plane that passes through the point (−4,5,−12)(-4,5,-12).

  2. The plane parallel to the yzyz-plane that passes through the point (7,−2,−3)(7, -2, -3).

  3. The sphere centered at the point (2,1,3)(2,1,3) and has the point (−1,0,−1)(-1,0,-1) on its surface.

  4. The sphere whose diameter has endpoints (−3,1,−5)(-3,1,-5) and (7,9,−1)(7,9,-1).
