To find the coordinates of point M, which is the foot of the perpendicular drawn from point A(4, 3, 2) to the line joining points B(2, 4, 1) and C(4, 5, 3), we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Determine the direction vector of line BC The direction vector of line BC can be calculated as: \[ \vec{BC} = C - B = (4 - 2, 5 - 4, 3 - 1) = (2, 1, 2) \] ...
