To write an equation for a line, we must know two points on the line, or we must know the direction of the line and at least one point through which the line passes. In two dimensions, we use the conc...To write an equation for a line, we must know two points on the line, or we must know the direction of the line and at least one point through which the line passes. In two dimensions, we use the concept of slope to describe the orientation, or direction, of a line. In three dimensions, we describe the direction of a line using a vector parallel to the line. In this section, we examine how to use equations to describe lines and planes in space.

A system of linear equations is a list of equations, \[\begin{array}{c} a_{11}x_{1}+a_{12}x_{2}+\cdots +a_{1n}x_{n}=b_{1} \\ a_{21}x_{1}+a_{22}x_{2}+\cdots +a_{2n}x_{n}=b_{2} \\ \vdots \\ a_{m1}x_{1}+...A system of linear equations is a list of equations, $\begin{array}{c} a_{11}x_{1}+a_{12}x_{2}+\cdots +a_{1n}x_{n}=b_{1} \\ a_{21}x_{1}+a_{22}x_{2}+\cdots +a_{2n}x_{n}=b_{2} \\ \vdots \\ a_{m1}x_{1}+a_{m2}x_{2}+\cdots +a_{mn}x_{n}=b_{m} \end{array}\nonumber$ where $a_{ij}$ and $b_{j}$ are real numbers.

The slope conveys direction information. As vertical lines have an undefined slope, the following statement is more accurate: "To define a line, one needs a point on the line and the direction of the line."
