A parallelopiped $$'S'$$ has base points $$A, B, C$$ and $$D$$ and upper face points $$A',$$ $$B',$$ $$C'$$ and $$D'.$$ This parallelopiped is compressed by upper face $$A'B'C'D'$$ to form a new parallelopiped $$'T'$$ having upper face points $$A'',B'',C''$$ and $$D''.$$ Volume of parallelopiped $$T$$ is $$90$$ percent of the volume of parallelopiped $$S.$$ Prove that the locus of $$'A''',$$ is a plane.

Find the equation of plane passing through $$(1, 1, 1)$$ & parallel to the lines $${L_1},{L_2}$$ having direction ratios $$(1,0,-1),(1,-1,0).$$ Find the volume of tetrahedron formed by origin and the points where these planes intersect the coordinate axes.

(i) Find the equation of the plane passing through the points $$(2, 1, 0), (5, 0, 1)$$ and $$(4, 1, 1).$$
(ii) If $$P$$ is the point $$(2, 1, 6)$$ then find the point $$Q$$ such that $$PQ$$ is perpendicular to the plane in (i) and the mid point of $$PQ$$ lies on it.

The position vectors of the vertices $$A, B$$ and $$C$$ of a tetrahedron $$ABCD$$ are $$\widehat i + \widehat j + \widehat k,\,\widehat i$$ and $$3\widehat i\,,$$ respectively. The altitude from vertex $$D$$ to the opposite face $$ABC$$ meets the median line through $$A$$ of the triangle $$ABC$$ at a point $$E.$$ If the length of the side $$AD$$ is $$4$$ and the volume of the tetrahedron is $${{2\sqrt 2 } \over 3},$$ find the position vector of the point $$E$$ for all its possible positions.
