Let PQR be a triangle with $R(-1,4,2)$. Suppose $M(2,1,2)$ is the mid point of PQ. The distance of the centroid of $\triangle \mathrm{PQR}$ from the point of intersection of the lines $\frac{\mathrm{x}-2}{0}=\frac{\mathrm{y}}{2}=\frac{\mathrm{z}+3}{-1}$ and $\frac{\mathrm{x}-1}{1}=\frac{\mathrm{y}+3}{-3}=\frac{\mathrm{z}+1}{1}$ is

Multiplication of a Vector by a Scalar
If a is a vector and "λ" is a scalar (i.e. a real number), then λa is a vector whose magnitude is |λ| times that of a and whose direction is the same (or opposite) that of a according as the value of λ is positive (or negative).
Note that λa is collinear to the vector a.
