Question

Find the vector equation of the line passing through the point having position vector `-hat"i" - hat"j" + 2hat"k"  "and parallel to the line" bar"r" = (hat"i" + 2hat"j" + 3hat"k") + λ(3hat"i" + 2hat"j" + hat"k").`

Solution

Let A be point having position vector `bar"a" = -hat"i" - hat"j" + 2hat"k"`
The required line is parallel to the line

`bar"r" = (hat"i" + 2hat"j" + 3hat"k" + λ(3hat"i" + 2hat"j" + hat"k")`

∴ it is parallel to the vector

`bar"b" = 3hat"i" + 2hat"j" + hat"k"`

The vector equation of the line passing through `"A"(bara)  "and parallel to"  bar"b"  "is"  bar"r" = bar"a" + λbar"b"`  where λ is a scalar.

∴ the required vector equation of the line is

`bar"r" = (-hat"i" - hat"j" + 2hat"k") + λ(3hat"i" + 2hat"j" + hat"k")`.
