Find the vector equation of the line passing thought the points `(-1,\ 0,\ 2)a n d\ (3,\ 4,\ 6)dot`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The direction ratios of the required line are

`` `(3-(-1), 4-0,6-2)=(4,4,4)`

`Rightarrow vec{b}=4 hat{i}+4 hat{j}+4 hat{k}`

`` since the line passes through `(-1,0,2)`

`` `Rightarrow vec{a}=-1 hat{i}+0 hat{j}+2 hat{k}`
