Find the equation of the line which passes through the point (1, 2, 3) and is parallel to the vector

We know that

Vector equation of a line that passes through a given point whose position vector is and parallel to a given vector is .


So, here the position vector of the point (1, 2, 3) is given by and the parallel vector is .


The vector equation of the required line is:


, where is a real number.
