1. Open Questions Write answers on the booklet, including details and proofs. Question 1.1. Show that if A and B are two distinct points in the euclidean space A3 ,the set of points P A3 having the same distance from A and from B is a plane. Question 1.2. In the euclidean space A3 consider, for varying k R the line rk x + 5y = (k + 1)2 2y + (1 k )z = 5 k 2 .

a) Write cartesian equations for the line s through the points P = (6, 1, 1) and Q = (9, 2, 1). b) For k = 0, compute the distance between s and r0 . c) For k = 1, compute the distance between s and r1 . d) For varying k R, establish the relative position between s and rk . e) Determine, if possible, a value k R such that rk has same distance from P and from Q. f) For all k R, determine, if it exists, a point Rk rk such that Rk has same distance from P and from Q
