Math help?
Point A(1,3,-4) is on plane x-2y+z+3=0. Find point B(a,b,c) that's symmetrical to point A.
Sorry the translation is a bit rough.

I don't know.
Drop out and become a stripper is my best advice.
No, no! Take it away!
TAKE IT AWAY!
Yeah, people would pay to not see me naked.
Yes.
Brings back memories, doesn't it?
Finda a garbage can and drop that shit away.
Eh, I'm not sure why but for some reason I think you've come to the wrong place :P
I have a PhD degree, but I can't understand the problem. If the point lies on the plain, how does the x,y,z values not match the equation? I mean 1-6+4+3 is not 0! So the plain is the symmetry "axis"? Is it what you wanted to say?
I just write it like I see it. I have no idea,lol.
Yes, I can see that now.
Too bad it's online.
The task seems kinda weird, you in high school or?
Can you take a screenshot or something?
I believe the equation is mean to represent the symmetrical point you're supposed to find. I could be wrong.
It would be +-4
Still doesn't match the figure graphed though.
University.
It's not in english tho. You wouldn't understand a thing.
It's okay people. My friend solved it for me. Thanks for trying.
I used to be good at math, then I got these kind jammed through my head.
Sorry, I can't help you on this one, mate. This is a completely foreign language to me. No matter how much I try, I simply can't understand why or how in heaven's name it works.
What's the language? I'm not English too.
I believe you have to produce the equation of the line ortogonal to the plane. I do not remember the formula, but there definitely was one. The line must contain the point A. Then you can find the distance from the point A to the plane, and then find the point B as belonging to the same line and being at the same distance from the plane.
Oh, I saw you got it done. Congrats
Man, I was so good at math before. Statistics and Calc was my jam. The fucking break has turned me into a retard!!!
You're gonna have to find help some place else mate.
