Options
- A3 2
- B-2 9
- C-2 3
- D9 2
Correct answer
D. 9 2
Step-by-step solution
As the given lines are intersecting, the shortest distance between them is zero. array ll & | array ccc x₂-x₁ & y₂-y₁ & z ₂- z ₁ a ₁ & ~b ₁ & c ₁ a ₂ & ~b ₂ & c ₂ array |=0 & | array ccc 3-1 & k +1 & 0-1 2 & 3 & 4 1 & 2 & 1 array |=0 & | array ccc 2 & k +1 & -1 2 & 3 & 4 1 & 2 & 1 array |=0 & k = 9 2 array
