Write the vector equations of the following lines and hence determine the distance between them `(x-1)/2=(y-2)/3=(z+4)/6a n d(x-3)/4=(y-3)/6=(z+5)/(12)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
`vec(r) = (hati + 2 hatj - 4 hatk ) + lambda ( 2hati + 3 hatj + 6 hatk )`
`and vec(r) = ( 3 hati + 3 hatj - 5 hatk ) + mu (4 hati + 6 hatj 12 hatk )`:
`(1)/(7) sqrt(293)` units.
