QUESTION:

9-16. Equations of lines Find an equation of the following lines. Make a sketch of the line.

The line through (0, 0, 1) parallel to the y-axis

ANSWER:

Solution 9E

Step 1 of 3:

In this problem we need to find the equation of the line passing through the point P(0,0,1) and parallel to the y-axis.

Equation of a line :

An equation of the line passing through the point P(,) in the direction of the vector  v =  is r =  + tv , here =  (or)

     =  + t  , for -.

            =  +  

           =

Therefore , the parametric equations of the line are ;

     X = + at , y = +bt , and z = + ct , for -.
