C = [-1, 1, 4] + r·([-1, 1, 5] - [-1, 1, 4]) = [-1, 1, r + 4]
AC = C - A = [-1, 1, r + 4] - [2, -3, 4] = [-3, 4, r]
BC = C - B = [-1, 1, r + 4] - [7, 9, 6] = [-8, -8, r - 2]
a)
AC * BC = [-3, 4, r] * [-8, -8, r - 2] = r^2 - 2·r - 8 = 0 --> r = 4 ∨ r = -2
b)
|AC| = |BC|
|[-3, 4, r]| = |[-8, -8, r - 2]| --> r = 26.75
Der Punkt C ist in beiden Fällen noch durch einsetzen von r zu bestimmen.
