To find the shortest distance between the given lines, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Identify the vectors The equations of the lines are given as: 1. Line 1: \(\vec{r_1} = 6\hat{i} + 2\hat{j} + 2\hat{k} + \lambda(\hat{i} - 2\hat{j} + 2\hat{k})\) 2. Line 2: \(\vec{r_2} = -4\hat{i} - \hat{k} + \mu(3\hat{i} - 2\hat{j} - 2\hat{k})\) From these equations, we can identify: ...
