If the harmonic conjugate of $P(2, 3, 4)$ with respect to the line segment joining the points $A(3, -2, 2)$ and $B(6, -17, -4)$ is $Q(\alpha, \beta, \gamma)$, then $\alpha + \beta + \gamma =$

The Cartesian equation of the line passing through the point $(-3,0,1)$ and perpendicular to vectors $\hat{i}-2\hat{j}+\hat{k}$ and $2\hat{i}+\hat{j}-\hat{k}$ is

Let $Q$ be the cube with the set of vertices $\{(x_1, x_2, x_3) \in \mathbb{R}^3: x_1, x_2, x_3 \in \{0,1\}\}$. Let $F$ be the set of all twelve lines containing the diagonals of the six faces of the cube $Q$. Let $S$ be the set of all four lines containing the main diagonals of the cube $Q$; for instance,the line passing through the vertices $(0,0,0)$ and $(1,1,1)$ is in $S$. For lines $\ell_1$ and $\ell_2$,let $d(\ell_1, \ell_2)$ denote the shortest distance between them. Then the maximum value of $d(\ell_1, \ell_2)$,as $\ell_1$ varies over $F$ and $\ell_2$ varies over $S$,is
