Consider the line L 1 : (x+1)/3=( y-2)...

Consider the line L 1 : `(x+1)/3=( y-2)/1= (z+1)/2`, L 2 : `(x-2)/1=( y+2)/2= (z-3)/3`

A

` 0 `

B

` 17//sqrt 3 `

C

`41//5sqrt3 `

D

`17//5 sqrt 2 `

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

The shortest distance between ` L _ 1 and L _ 2 ` is
` (|{:( x _2 - x _ 1 , y _ 2 - y _ 1 , z _ 2- z_ 1 ) , ( a_ 1, b _ 1, c _ 1), ( a_ 2, b _ 2, c _ 2):}| ) /( sqrt ( ( a _ 1 b _ 2 - a _ 2 b _ 1 ) ^ 2 + ( b _ 1 c _ 2 - b _ 2 c _ 1 ) ^ 2 + ( c _ 1 a _ 2 - c _ 2 a _ 1 ) ^ 2 ) ) `
` (|{:( 3,0,4) ,( 3,1,2) ,(1,2,3 ):}| ) / ( sqrt ( 25 + 1 + 49)) = (3 ( 3- 4 ) + 0 + 4 ( 6 - 1) ) / ( sqrt ( 75 )) `
` = ( 17 ) / ( sqrt ( 2 ) ) `
