### Problem Statement on Lines and Planes

**20.** Two lines \( \mathbf{r}_1 \) and \( \mathbf{r}_2 \) are given by the parametric equations:

\[ \mathbf{r}_1 = (1,1,0) + t(1,-1,2) \]
\[ \mathbf{r}_2 = (2,0,2) + t(-1,1,0) \]

**Tasks:**
(a) Find the point at which the two lines intersect.
(b) Find an equation of the plane that contains these lines.

To approach this problem, we need to solve for the parameter \( t \) that makes the lines intersect and then use the result to find the plane.

For part (a), set the equations of \( \mathbf{r}_1 \) and \( \mathbf{r}_2 \) equal to find the intersection point. 

For part (b), use the point found in (a) and the direction vectors of the two lines to determine the equation of the plane.
