Step 1: Solve the equation 

Consider .

Let be the origin that contains the normal vector, and then it can be written as shown below:

So, it can be written as .

Step 2: Find the value of d

As hyperplane is passing through 6 nonzero vectors. So, the value of d is shown below:

Step 3: Find the dot products of   with given vectors

The dot product of and is:

The dot product of and is:

The dot product of and is:

The dot product of and is:

The dot product of and is:

The dot product of and is:

It can be observed from the above equations and , the parallel hyperplane strictly
separates A and B, then by theorem 13 H does not separate A and B.

In Exercises 21-26, prove the given statement about subsets A and B of , or provide the required example in . A proof for an
exercise may use results from earlier exercises (as well as theorems already available in the text).

21. If , then B is affine, then .

Question: Let , , , and , let be the hyperplane in through with normal , and let

be the hyperplane through with normal . Give an explicit description of . (Hint: Find a point p in and two
linearly independent vectors and that span a subspace parallel to the 2-dimensional flat .)

In Exercises 7 and 8, find the barycentric coordinates of p with respect to the affinely independent set of points that precedes it.

8. ,

In Exercises 13-15 concern the subdivision of a Bezier curve shown in Figure 7. Let be the Bezier curve, with control points
, and let and be the subdividing Bezier curves as in the text, with control points and , respectively.

15. Sometimes only one-half of a Bezier curve needs further subdividing. For example, subdivision of the “left” side is accomplished
with parts (a) and (c) of Exercise 13 and equation (8). When both halves of the curve are divided, it is possible to organize
calculations efficiently to calculate both left and right control points concurrently, without using equation (8) directly.

a. Show that the tangent vector and are equal.

b. Use part (a) to show that (which equals ) is the midpoint of the segment from to .

c. Using part (b) and the results of Exercises 13 and 14, write an algorithm that computes the control points for both and in an
efficient manner. The only operations needed are sums and division by 2.
