I'll assume you mean Q27(b) as part (a) is simply following the procedure to find [Mimetex cannot convert this formula]
Take [Mimetex cannot convert this formula]
Let the line be represented by the variable point with position vector
[Mimetex cannot convert this formula]
Let P(x,y,z) represent the variable point (and hence the line) which is mapped onto [Mimetex cannot convert this formula]
[Mimetex cannot convert this formula]
[Mimetex cannot convert this formula]
[Mimetex cannot convert this formula]
[Mimetex cannot convert this formula]
That is, [Mimetex cannot convert this formula]

Phew, finally got that out. Sorry about the mess in between.
