Taking the axis OZ to be vertical, find the equations of the line of greatest slope through the point (2,-1,0) on the plane $2x+3y-4z-1=0$

You have to know the concept of the line of greatest slope (in a 3D representation) first. See my answer to the following question https://math.stackexchange.com/questions/1123724/what-is-the-line-of-greatest-slope-on-a-plane – Mick Jan 26 '18 at 05:12
Thanks you sir, I'll check it out. – Phanindra Jan 26 '18 at 05:15
