Solution
Let the required line be parallel to vector `vecb` given by,
`vecb = b_1hati + b_2hatj + b_3hatk`
The position vector of the point (1, 2, 3) is `veca = hati + 2hatj + 3hatk`
The equation of line passing through (1, 2, 3) and parallel to `vecb`is given by,

This is the equation of the required line.
