If the straight lines
$$x=1+s,y=-3$$$$ - \lambda s,$$ $$z = 1 + \lambda s$$ and $$x = {t \over 2},y = 1 + t,z = 2 - t,$$ with parameters $$s$$ and $$t$$ respectively, are co-planar, then $$\lambda $$ equals :
$$x=1+s,y=-3$$$$ - \lambda s,$$ $$z = 1 + \lambda s$$ and $$x = {t \over 2},y = 1 + t,z = 2 - t,$$ with parameters $$s$$ and $$t$$ respectively, are co-planar, then $$\lambda $$ equals :
