    The document provides the solution to finding a unit vector parallel to the line described by the equation 2x + z = 4. It first finds two points on the line, (0, 0, 4) and (2, 0, 0), by setting variables in the equation to values that satisfy it. It then calculates the vector A between these two points as (2, 0, -4). Finally, it computes the unit vector parallel to A as the vector A divided by its magnitude, which is √20.

    Problem 3.11 Find a unit vector parallel to either direction of the line described by 2x + z = 4.

    Solution: First, we nd any two points on the given line. Since the line equation is not a function of y, the given line is in a plane parallel to the xz plane. For convenience, we choose the xz plane with y = 0. For x = 0, z = 4. Hence, point P is at (0, 0, 4). For z = 0, x = 2. Hence, point Q is at (2, 0, 0). Vector A from P to Q is: (2 0) + y (0 0) + z (0 4) = x 2 z 4, A=x 2 z 4 A x = a . = |A| 20
