A complex line subbundle L⊂E defines a section of a fiber bundle s:X→P(E) selecting Lx​ at each point. Pullback of the tautological bundle along s is L, so if t is its Euler class, then s∗t=e(L). For a decomposition E=⨁i​Li​, the resulting sections and the open sets where coordinate projection is nonzero identify the tautological line with π∗Li​. These identifications support the projective-bundle factorization via a vanishing cup product from an open cover.
