Find the vector form of to
.
When we are trying to find the vector form we need to remember the formula which states to take the difference between the ending and starting point.
Thus we would get:
Given
and 
![\overrightarrow{v}=[d-a, e-b, f-c]](https://vt-vtwa-assets.varsitytutors.com/vt-vtwa/uploads/formula_image/image/327010/gif.latex)
In our case we have ending point at
and our starting point at
.
Therefore we would set up the following and simplify.
![\overrightarrow{v}=[6-0,3-1,1-3]=[6,2,-2]](https://vt-vtwa-assets.varsitytutors.com/vt-vtwa/uploads/formula_image/image/327013/gif.latex)
