I'm fairly new to teaching and am currently teaching high school students about vector geometry. I am currently making a test for them for next week and it is mostly about the scalar product and the vector product. For this, I went through my old exams and exercises (which are a lot) and chose the ones I thought were important to solve.
Now there is one exercise that I think would be a good exercise for them, however it has really really ugly numbers as a result whereas all other exercises in the exam have very nice numbers. It reads as follows:
The point $M = (6,1,6)$ is midpoint of the regular octahedron $ABCDEF$. Further, one of the edges is part of the line $g$ consisting of the points $P = (0,-6,6)$ and $Q = (9,0,3)$. Find the volume of the octahedron without calculating any futher points. Then, find the coordinates of the six vertices $A,B, C, D, E, F$.
What software would be suited to create such exercises? Basically, what I need is an octahedron with a "nice" volume, its vertices at nice points in $\mathbb{R}^3$ and one of its edges running through nice points. By nice, I mean points with coordinates in $\mathbb{Z}$ or maybe very simple fractions.
