Ex 11.2, 6 Find the Cartesian equation of the line which passes through the point (– 2, 4, – 5) and parallel to the line given by (š‘„ + 3)/3 = (š‘¦ āˆ’ 4)/5 = (š‘§ + 8)/6. Equation of a line passing through (x1, y1, z1) and parallel to a line having direction ratios a, b, c is (š‘„ āˆ’ š‘„1)/š‘Ž = (š‘¦ āˆ’ š‘¦1)/š‘ = (š‘§ āˆ’ š‘§1)/š‘ Since the line passes through (āˆ’2, 4, āˆ’5) š’™šŸ = āˆ’2, y1 = 4, z1 = āˆ’5 Since the line is parallel to (š‘„ + 3)/3 = (š‘¦ āˆ’ 4)/5 = (š‘§ + 8)/6 š’‚ = 3, b = 5, c = 6 Therefore, Equation of line in Cartesian form is (š‘„ āˆ’ (āˆ’2))/3 = (š‘¦ āˆ’ 4)/5 = (š‘§ āˆ’ (āˆ’5))/6 (š’™ + šŸ)/šŸ‘ = (š’š āˆ’ šŸ’)/šŸ“ = (š’› + šŸ“)/šŸ”
