Find the Distance Between the Two Skew Lines $L _ { 1 } : \frac { x - 1 } { 2 } = \frac { y - 3 } { 5 } = \frac { z - 1 } { 3 }$

question 208

Short Answer

Find the distance between the two skew lines $L _ { 1 } : \frac { x - 1 } { 2 } = \frac { y - 3 } { 5 } = \frac { z - 1 } { 3 }$ and $L _ { 2 } : \frac { x - 2 } { 4 } = \frac { y + 1 } { 2 } = \frac { z + 2 } { 3 }$
