Why these show up together
A matrix is invertible only when its determinant is non-zero. Computing the determinant (2k-12) and setting it to zero gives the value of k where the matrix has no inverse — determinants are the direct test for whether a matrix's inverse (used to solve linear systems) exists at all.
Why these show up together
The equation of a line in 3D space is written directly in terms of a position vector and a direction vector — vector algebra supplies exactly the tools (direction ratios, dot/cross products) that 3D geometry uses to describe lines and planes.
