A non zero vector is parallel to the line of intersection of the plane determined by the vectors and the plane determined by the vectors then the angle between and is

For such questions, we should know how to find the normal to the plane. We should know how to find the line of intersection of two planes. And, we should know how to take a cross product.

Let and . Then, the line of intersection of planes one determined by and other determined by is perpendicular to

For such questions, we should know how to find the line intersecting two planes. We should also know how to find the normal to the plane using two vectors.
