[THOUGHT] We need to compute 4 * ℓ^2 * A^2, where ℓ = length PQ, and A = area of triangle PQR.
Given:
- L1: intersection of planes 2x+3y+z=4 and x+2y+z=5.
- L2: line through P(2,-1,3) parallel to L1.
- Plane Π: 2x+y-2z=6.
- Q = intersection of L2 with Π.
- R = foot of perpendicular from P to Π.
- ℓ = distance PQ.
- A = area of triangle PQR.
We need 4 ℓ^2 A^2.
Steps:
- Find direction vector of L1: cross product of normals of the two planes. Plane1: 2x+3y+z=4 → normal n1 = (2,3,1) Plane2: x+2y+z=5 → normal n2 = (1,2,1) Direction d = n1 × n2 = cross product.
- L2: through P with direction d.
- Find Q: intersection of L2 with Π. Parametric eq: P + t d. Plug into plane equation to solve t.
- Compute ℓ = distance between P and Q = |t| * |d| (or compute directly).
- Find R: foot of perpendicular from P to Π. Use formula: project P onto plane along normal of Π. Plane Π: 2x+y-2z=6, normal n = (2,1,-2). Find point R such that vector PR is parallel to n and R lies on plane. Let R = P + s n. Plug into plane equation to solve s.
- Compute area A of triangle PQR. We have coordinates of P, Q, R. Area = 0.5 * |(Q-P) × (R-P)|.
- Compute ℓ^2 and A^2, then 4 ℓ^2 A^2.
We'll compute exactly using sympy for rational numbers.
Let's implement. [/THOUGHT] [PYTHON] import sympy as sp
Define symbols

Points and vectors
P = sp.Point(2, -1, 3)
Normals
n1 = sp.Matrix([2, 3, 1]) n2 = sp.Matrix([1, 2, 1])
Direction of L1 (cross product)

Parametric line L2: P + t*d
x, y, z = sp.symbols('x y z')
Coordinates as functions of t

Plane Π: 2x + y - 2z = 6
plane_eq = 2x + y - 2z - 6
Substitute parametric into plane equation
sub_eq = plane_eq.subs({x: x_expr, y: y_expr, z: z_expr}) print("Equation in t:", sub_eq)

t_sol = sp.solve(sub_eq, t) print("t solution:", t_sol) t_val = t_sol[0]
Coordinates of Q
Q = sp.Point(x_expr.subs(t, t_val), y_expr.subs(t, t_val), z_expr.subs(t, t_val)) print("Q:", Q)
Distance ℓ = PQ

Find R: foot of perpendicular from P to plane Π

Area of triangle PQR: 0.5 * |(Q-P) × (R-P)|
QP = sp.Matrix(Q - P) RP = sp.Matrix(R - P) cross = QP.cross(RP) cross_norm_sq = cross.dot(cross) area_sq = (cross_norm_sq) / 4 # because area = 0.5 * |cross|, so area^2 = (1/4) * |cross|^2 print("Area^2:", area_sq)
Compute 4 * ℓ^2 * A^2
result = 4 * ell_sq * area_sq print("4 ℓ^2 A^2:", result)
Simplify if needed
result_simplified = sp.simplify(result) print("Simplified result:", result_simplified) [/PYTHON]
[THOUGHT] The Python output gives ℓ^2 = 243, area^2 = 1053/2, and 4 ℓ^2 A^2 = 511758. This is the exact integer result we need. [/THOUGHT] \boxed{511758}
