Find a vector equation and parametric equations for the line through the point (1,0,6) and perpendicular to the plane \(\displaystyle x+3y+z\,=\,5\) Click to expand... Why are you stuck? You don't know the formulas for the equations of a line? . . Vector: .\(\displaystyle \vec v \;=\;\langle x_o,y_o,z_o\rangle + \langle a,b,c\rangle t\) . . Parametric: .\(\displaystyle \begin{Bmatrix} x&=& x_o + at \\ y &=& y_o + bt \\ z &=& z_o + ct \end{Bmatrix}\) You do know the formulas, . . but you don't know how to find \(\displaystyle x_o,y_o,z_o\) and \(\displaystyle a,b,c\) ?
