Relative to the origin O, the point A has position vector given by \(\overrightarrow{OA} = \mathbf{i} + 2\mathbf{j} + 4\mathbf{k}\). The line l has equation \(\mathbf{r} = 9\mathbf{i} - \mathbf{j} + 8\mathbf{k} + \mu(3\mathbf{i} - \mathbf{j} + 2\mathbf{k})\).
Find the position vector of the foot of the perpendicular from A to l. Hence find the position vector of the reflection of A in l.
