In this video I go over the vector equation of a line in 3D space. The method is similar to that of a line in 2D using the point-slope method. In 2D, a line is determined when a point on the line and the line's slope is known. Similarly, a line in 3D can be determined using vectors when a point on the line and a vector parallel to the line is known. The parallel vector can be multiplied by a scalar so that we can then find any point on the 3D line.
