The vector equation of a line is another form of interpreting a line but now with a different structure called a vector. Again, we will see a parameter in this form. A single parameter indicating that we are representing a linear relationship.

Another form of interpreting the linear relation is with the parametric equation of a line. In this form we have an unknown or parameter value. Depending on how many parameters there are we determine the type of “plane” we have. In our case here we will see one parameter indicating that we have a line.
