The document describes how to convert a vector equation of a line to Cartesian form. A vector equation defines a line using a point (a,b,c) on the line and a direction vector (k,m,n). It explains how to write the x, y, z coordinates in terms of λ and rearrange to make λ the subject, then equate the expressions to find the Cartesian equation of the line. The Cartesian equation defines the line using the standard x, y, z variables.
