Three planes and three lines through a point
The initial state of this interactive figure shows the planes , , and , together with their intersection point . The planes and intersect in a line parallel to the -axis. The intersection line is described by the pair of equations , . Similarly, the line of intersection of the planes and is described by the pair of equations , and is parallel to the -axis. The line of intersection of the planes and is described by the pair of equations , and is parallel to the -axis.
