To find the coordinates of the foot of the perpendicular drawn from the point \( A(1, 6, 3) \) to the line given by the equations \( \frac{x}{1} = \frac{y-1}{2} = \frac{z-2}{3} \), we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Parametrize the Line The line can be expressed in parametric form. Let \( t \) be the parameter. Then we can write: \[ x = t, \quad y = 2t + 1, \quad z = 3t + 2 ...
