Description
The routine computes the distance between two given objects: points, lines, and planes, or any combination of these.
The command with(geom3d,distance) allows the use of the abbreviated form of this command.
Examples
Distance from a point to a plane
Find the distance from a point to a straight line
Find the two points on the line x=2*y=3*z+6 at a distance of 7 units from the plane 2*x+y-2*z=5.
coordinates of the two points are
