Plane class

A class that represents a plane in a three-dimensional space. Each instance of this class is defined by a Point and a normal Vector.

var point = Point(1, 2, 3);
var normal = Vector(1, 0, 0);
var plane = Plane(point, normal);
print(plane);  // Output: Plane(point: Point(1, 2, 3), normal: Vector(1, 0, 0))

Constructors

Plane.new(Point point, Vector3 normal)
Creates a new instance of the Plane class.

Methods

angleBetween(Plane other) → Angle
Calculates the angle between this Plane and other in degrees.
containsPoint(Point other) → bool
Checks if the Plane contains a Point.
distanceToPoint(Point other) → double
Calculates the shortest (perpendicular) distance from a point in space to the plane.
getPerpendicularLine(Point point) → Line
Gets the perpendicular line to this plane passing through the given point.
intersectionWithLine(Line line) → Point?
Finds the intersection point between a line and the plane. If the line is parallel to the plane and doesn't intersect, it returns null.
intersectionWithPlane(Plane other) → Line?
Finds the line of intersection between this Plane and other.
isParallelTo(Plane other) → bool
Checks if this Plane is parallel to other.
isPerpendicularTo(Plane other) → bool
Checks if this Plane is perpendicular to other.
magnitude() → num
Returns the magnitude (or norm) of the normal.
noSuchMethod(Invocation invocation) → dynamic
Invoked when a nonexistent method or property is accessed.
inherited
parallelLine({Point? throughPoint, required PlaneType planeType}) → Line
Creates a line parallel to this plane.
parallelThroughPoint(Point other) → Plane
Creates a new plane parallel to this plane, passing through other.
parallelToOrigin() → Line
perpendicularLine(Point pivot) → Line
Creates a line perpendicular to this plane, passing through pivot.
perpendicularToOrigin() → Line
projectionOfPoint(Point other) → Point
Finds the orthogonal projection of a given point onto the plane.
reflectionOfPoint(Point other) → Point
Given a point in space, this method finds the point that is the reflection of the given point through the plane.
scaleBy(double scalar) → Vector
toString() → String
A string representation of this object.
override
translate(Vector3 v) → Plane
Translates the plane by a given vector v.

Operators

operator ==(Object other) → bool
The equality operator.
