In this paper, position vector of a slant helix with respect to standard frame in Euclidean space E3 is studied in terms of Frenet equations. First, a vector differential equation of third order is constructed to determine a position vector of an arbitrary slant helix. In terms of solution, we determine the parametric representation of the slant helices from the intrinsic equations. Thereafter, we apply this method to find the parametric representation of a Salkowski curve, anti-Salkowski curve and a curve of constant precession, as examples of a slant helices, by means of intrinsic equations.
