Try it on paper first. A hint, the key idea and the worked solution are here when you need them.
A survey drone flies along the line . Coordinates are in hundreds of metres. Find the coordinates of the drone when . Then find the value of for which the drone is at the point , which is where the landing marker is placed.
A line through parallel to is . In Cartesian form it is . A point lies on the line if one value of fits all three coordinates.
Have you tried it?
Work it out on paper first. It is fine to get stuck or make a mistake: that is how we learn. When you are ready, go through the solution one step at a time, and check each step against your own.
Step 1. The point at . , and . The drone is at .
Step 2. The marker. From : gives .
Step 3. The check. With , and . All three match .
Answer: , and .
