Let $L _ { 1 }$ be the line of intersection of the planes given by the equations
$$2 x + 3 y + z = 4 \text { and } x + 2 y + z = 5 .$$
Let $L _ { 2 }$ be the line passing through the point $P ( 2 , - 1,3 )$ and parallel to $L _ { 1 }$. Let $M$ denote the plane given by the equation
$$2 x + y - 2 z = 6$$
Suppose that the line $L _ { 2 }$ meets the plane $M$ at the point $Q$. Let $R$ be the foot of the perpendicular drawn from $P$ to the plane $M$.
Then which of the following statements is (are) TRUE?
(A)The length of the line segment $PQ$ is $9 \sqrt { 3 }$
(B)The length of the line segment $QR$ is 15
(C)The area of $\triangle PQR$ is $\frac { 3 } { 2 } \sqrt { 234 }$
(D)The acute angle between the line segments $PQ$ and $PR$ is $\cos ^ { - 1 } \left( \frac { 1 } { 2 \sqrt { 3 } } \right)$
