A plane meets the coordinates axes at L, M, N respectively, such that the centroid of the triangle LMN is (1,-2,3) . Find the equation of the plane.

If m is the A.M. of two distinct real number l and n(l , n gt 1) and G_1 , G_2 and G_3 are three geometric means between l and n , then G_1^4 + 2G_2^4 + G_3^4 equals.

In the adjacent figure, a line n falls on lines l and m such that the sum of the interior angles 1 and 2 is less than 180°, then what can you say about lines l and m.

If L,M,N divide the sides BC,CA and AB of a triangle ABC in the same ratio, then show that the traiangle ABC and dLMN have the same centroid.
