Explanation: The equation of the line which passes through the point (1, 2, 3) and is parallel to the vector
$3 \hat{i}+2 \hat{j}-2 \hat{k}$, let vector $\vec{a}=\hat{i}+\hat{j}+\hat{k}$ and vector $\vec{b}=3 \hat{i}+2 \hat{j}-2 \hat{k}$
the equation of line is:
$\vec{a}+\lambda \vec{b}=(\hat{i}+\hat{j}+\hat{k})+\lambda(3 \hat{i}+2 \hat{j}-2 \hat{k})$
