Jun 19 at 19:06 comment added Turquoise Tilt @EgorLarionov what do you mean it's not a point? Could you elaborate further? Notation abuse left apart, related to my question do you have any thoughts?
Jun 19 at 18:58 comment added Egor Larionov That’s an abuse of notation. If you say $Q=(0,0,x)$, then it’s not a point.
Jun 19 at 17:57 comment added Turquoise Tilt @EgorLarionov I missed the part where $Q$ is linked to a line. The point $P$ in my new coordinate system isn't at $z=0$ since $z$ is no more a coordinate, I'm choosing the normal to the plane in the origin as last coordinate.

Jun 19 at 17:24 comment added Egor Larionov First of all, I don’t think you should mix up spherical and Cartesian coordinates in the same problem arrangement. Second of all, the question clearly states the point $Q$ is attached at the origin. How do you get $x$ involved in the coordinates? Also, the first point you have is for some reason bound at $z=0$. How come? You know that $\Pi$ spans all the $z$-axis, don’t you?
