Geometria analítica: equações paramétricas do plano

Abstract

This material presents, in a visual and educational way, the idea of a plane in parametric form in Analytic Geometry. The plane is defined by an initial point (P_0) and by two non-parallel direction vectors, (\vec a) and (\vec b). From the equation (P = P_0 + s\vec a + t\vec b), it is shown that, as the parameters (s) and (t) vary, the points belonging to the plane are generated. Thus, the animation helps students understand how the direction vectors determine the orientation of the plane in space.
