The diagram shows a solid figure ABCDEF in which the horizontal base ABC is a triangle right-angled at A. The lengths of AB and AC are 8 units and 4 units respectively and M is the mid-point of AB. The point D is 7 units vertically above A. Triangle DEF lies in a horizontal plane with DE, DF and FE parallel to AB, AC and CB respectively and N is the mid-point of FE. The lengths of DE and DF are 4 units and 2 units respectively. Unit vectors i, j and k are parallel to \overrightarrow{AB}, \overrightarrow{AC} and \overrightarrow{AD} respectively.
