To find the equation of the line passing through the points P(2, -1, 4) and Q(6, 2, -3) in Cartesian form, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Find the direction vector of the line The direction vector \( \mathbf{PQ} \) can be calculated by subtracting the coordinates of point P from point Q. \[ \mathbf{PQ} = Q - P = (6 - 2, 2 - (-1), -3 - 4) \] ...
