(a) The parametric equations for a line passing through (x0, y0, z0) and parallel to the vector v=ai + bj + ck are x=x0 + at, y=y0 + bt, z=z0 + ct The required parametric equations are x= 1 + 3t, y=4t, z=8  8t (b) The parametric equations are x= 1 + 3t, y=4t, z=8  8t Solving for t we have,  t= x + 13, t= y4, t= z  88
 x + 13= y4= z  88
 x + 13= y4= 8  z8 Symmetric equations x + 13=y4=8  z8
