Need some help with analytic geometry
$begingroup$
Check if the following point lies on the plane π : 2x − 3y + 4z − 5 = 0
- (point) A = (1, -1, 0)
Check if the following vector lies on the plane π : 2x − 3y + 4z − 5 = 0
- (vector) -AC = (1, 2, 1)
Can someone help me to solve this? With my example please, it would be great.

You have the equation. Plug in the point and see if the equation’s satisfied.

To check whether a point belongs to a plane just substitute x,y,z in you equation by the given numbers. $2*1 - 3(-1) + 4 cdot0-5=5-5=0$ <- so it does belong to your plane
If we want to check whether a vector lies on the plane it has to be perpendicular to the normal vector. To see if it is consider the following vector product: $[2,-3,4] times [1,2,1]$. If it is zero, then your vector lies on the plane.

Does point A lie in the plane? How would you check that?
Now find a second point in the plane. $A+v.$
Is this point in your plane?
A different way to check to see if your vectors is parallel to your plane. Find the normal vector to your plane. $v$ perpendicular to the normal vector? (How would you check that?)
