3D Geometry Formulae Sheet

This document provides formulas and equations for vectors, lines, and planes in 3-dimensional space. It includes vector and Cartesian equation forms for lines defined by point-parallel, two-point, and angle between lines. It also includes formulas for planes defined by normal, point-normal, three points, and intercept forms. Additionally, it covers relationships between lines and planes such as shortest distance, coplanarity, parallelism, and perpendicularity.
