Best explanation I’ve found so far! Thank you

[@mastersoldi3]

thanks a lot for this video. Just found a new way of doing it thanks to you

[@Atlas92936]

If the origin is a point (0,0,0), then does this method work with finding a point on a plane that's closest to the origin?

[@NakiaRimmer]

Wadud Khan Yes, everything works the same 1drv.ms/u/s!AnHqa2NPtzRcgs9qsm2Am2pvvUb-jQ

You are a great teacher, thank you!

THANKS FOR SAVING MY LIFE!!!!!!

[@sikshabrati1290]

How can you say that it is the closest? It may be any line containing both points.

[@NakiaRimmer]

Through two points, there is only one line.

I cant thank you enough!!! Thank you!!

[@SsooFfetch]

Is there a way to verify/check this graphically and/or mathematically? Thanks btw, very helpful nonetheless!

[@saadanwar4937]

omg this made this problem sooooooo easy thank you soooo mcuh.

[@saadafm]

you are a kind soul.

What if it is on the plane? How to find? Thanks 👍

[@NakiaRimmer]

It would then be: “Finding the point on a plane that is closest to another point on the plane”. Imagine you’re on the xy-plane, and you have a point. You wouldn’t ask “what point is closest to that point?” A good twist on that would be “Find a point on a plane closest to a curve on the plane.” That becomes an optimization problem. I hope this helps.

I think this guy has the same accent as the person who narrates CBT, from wikipedia, the free encyclopedia at en.wikipedia.org

I apologize, this is one of my earlier videos done on an early generation iPad with a rubber tip stylus. If you'd like, I can send you a pdf of a typed up version of this problem.
