Line through two given points: direction ratios for JEE

Direction ratios and direction cosines and the angle between two intersecting lines

Formula

\((a,b,c)=(x_2-x_1,\ y_2-y_1,\ z_2-z_1)\)

Variables: Line passes through \(P(x_1,y_1,z_1)\) and \(Q(x_2,y_2,z_2)\).

Conditions: \(P\neq Q\).

Writing equation of a line through two points; checking collinearity.
