(a)
Answer to Problem 13CLT
The parametric equations of the line passing through the points
Explanation of Solution
Given Information:
Points:
Calculation:
Parametric equation of the passing through two points
Consider,
To get the parametric equation of the line passing through the points
Use the standard result to get the parametric equation of the line passing through the two points.
Therefore,
Hence, the parametric equation of the line passing through the points
