Ex 11.2, 4 Find the equation of the line which passes through the point (1, 2, 3) and is parallel to the vector 3š Ģ + 2š Ģ ā 2š Ģ . Equation of a line passing through a point with position vector š ā, and parallel to a vector š ā is š ā = š ā + šš ā Since line passes through (1, 2, 3) š ā = 1š Ģ + 2š Ģ + 3š Ģ Since line is parallel to 3š Ģ + 2š Ģ ā 2š Ģ š ā = 3š Ģ + 2š Ģ ā 2š Ģ Equation of line š ā = š ā + šš ā š ā = (š Ģ + 2š Ģ + 3š Ģ) + š (3š Ģ + 2š Ģ ā 2š Ģ)
