In an orthonormal coordinate system $(\mathrm{O}; \vec{\imath}, \vec{\jmath}, \vec{k})$ of space, we consider the plane $(P)$ with equation:
$$(P) : \quad 2x + 2y - 3z + 1 = 0 .$$
We consider the three points $\mathrm{A}$, $\mathrm{B}$ and $\mathrm{C}$ with coordinates:
$$\mathrm{A}(1;0;1), \quad \mathrm{B}(2;-1;1) \quad \text{and} \quad \mathrm{C}(-4;-6;5).$$
The purpose of this exercise is to study the ratio of areas between a triangle and its orthogonal projection onto a plane.
