Finding parametric equations for the line through the point that is perpendicular to plane and parallel?
What is the difference when finding parametric equations for a line through a point that is perpendicular vs. parallel? Surely there must be some difference but I cannot seem to figure it out.
Here is an example
Find parametric equations for the line through the point (2,4,6) perpendicular to plane x-y+3x=7
Also find parametric equations for the same line parallel to the same plane...
Do you find them both by using r(t)=r+ t*v
?
