Thank you - saw that, and others' replies, and all makes sense! I shouldn't try to do maths before 9am, the number of times I also tell my students not to get bogged down in the algebra if they've not looked at a simple diagram and seen if there's a "simple" geometric explanation!!

Sorry running out of time this morning, and also got stuck so far, nice numbers so 30⁰ and (1, 1, 2)? And 4a+3b+5c=0? But the other one should be solveable but feel like I'm missing something crucial while brain not woken up yet!

So dot product of L2's direction vector with normal to plane is 0, and dot product with L1's direction uses the angle given - feels like it should be possible? Will have to get pen and paper out over breakfast now!

Any chips that aren't fried in with gluten-containing breadcrumbs or batter are a win for me, to be honest!

I like the idea that you might have submitted 19 of the scripts a minute before the July cut-off, and just one a minute later! Still, it's halfway towards buying a Costa!

When I go to emojis on my keyboard, there's a tiny "search" field - typing "pin" in there brought it up for me. I feel there's probably an even easier way than that...?!

Some great advice there! I may pass some of that on to my students too if you don't mind!
