The plane \(\Pi\) has equation \(\mathbf{r} = -2\mathbf{i} + 3\mathbf{j} + 3\mathbf{k} + \lambda (\mathbf{i} + \mathbf{k}) + \mu (2\mathbf{i} + 3\mathbf{j})\).

  1. Find a Cartesian equation of \(\Pi\), giving your answer in the form \(ax + by + cz = d\).
  2. The line \(l\) passes through the point \(P\) with position vector \(2\mathbf{i} - 3\mathbf{j} + 5\mathbf{k}\) and is parallel to the vector \(\mathbf{k}\). Find the position vector of the point where \(l\) meets \(\Pi\).
  3. Find the acute angle between \(l\) and \(\Pi\).
  4. Find the perpendicular distance from \(P\) to \(\Pi\).
