Practice Questions

Test your understanding with targeted questions

Question 1 Easy

Write the symmetric form for a line passing through (1,2,3) and parallel to (4,5,6).

💡 Hint: Start with the coordinates of the point and the direction ratios.

Question 2 Easy

What do the direction ratios of a symmetric line represent?

💡 Hint: Remember, these ratios help define the slope of the line in three dimensions.

Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

Determine the symmetric form of a line through points A(2,3,5) and B(5,6,8).

💡 Hint: Use the concept of direction ratios and the coordinates of the given points.

Challenge 2 Hard

Given the symmetric form \( \frac{x - 4}{a} = \frac{y + 5}{b} = \frac{z - 6}{c} \), if a = 0, what does this line represent?

💡 Hint: Think about what it means to not have a directional change in one axis.
