Find the equation of the line in vect...

Find the equation of the line in vector and in cartesian form that passes through the point with position vector `2 hat i- hat j+4 hat k` and is in the direction ` hat i+2 hat j- hat k` .

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
`vec(r) = 2 hat(i) - hat(j) + 4 hat(k) + lambda ( hat(i) + 2 hat(j) - hat(k) ); `
`(x -2)/(1) = (y + 1)/(2) = (z -4)/(-1)` .
