(a)
To find: The set of parametric equations for the line through the point
(a)
Answer to Problem 9E
The set of parametric equations for the line through the point
Explanation of Solution
Given information:
The line passes through the point
Calculation:
The general set of equations of line in parametric form is
Compare the line
Both the lines are parallel. So, the direction numbers of both the lines are same. So, the direction numbers of the lines are
Substitute
Therefore, the set of parametric equations for the line through the point
(b)
To find: The set of symmetric equations for the line through the point
(b)
Answer to Problem 9E
The set of symmetric equation for the line through the point
Explanation of Solution
Given information:
The line passes through the point
Calculation:
The given set of parallel lines is
Change the set of parametric lines to set of symmetric lines.
So, the set of symmetric parallel lines is
Compare this set of symmetric lines to the general set of symmetric lines
Substitute
Therefore, the set of symmetric equation for the line through the point
