  • Learn how to find the point of intersection of two 3D lines. Starting from 2 lines equation, written in vector form, we write them in their parametric form and solve three equations, with two unknowns simultaneously to find if and where the two lines intersect. We also see how to distinguish whether the two lines intersect or are skew. The worked example is detailed and all the steps are shown.

    The thing that's frustrating is that you did not explain what alpha and beta are...
    are those supposed to be the distances to get to the second set of coordinates?
    If so, can I run this calculation with cartesian coordinates at all?

  • @scriblab
    @scriblab 2 года назад

    Excellent! Thanks for this very helpful explanation! Just one question: what happens if in step 3) alpha is not eliminated by subtracting E1-E2? Does one just insert any number (except 0) to have only one unknown? Thanks!

    • @Shodan159
      @Shodan159 2 года назад +3

      Hi scriblab,
      If it was not the case that [E1] - [E2] immediately eliminated (alpha), you can multiply either of the equations [E1] or [E2], by any scalar quantity so that (alpha) in both equations is equal and can be subtracted.
      Additionally, if it is easier, you could manipulate the equation so that for example:
      in [E1], (alpha) = 2
      &
      in [E2], (alpha) = -2
      And then you ADD the equations to eliminate (alpha) ( [E1] + [E2] ), you just have to set it up so one of the two unknown variables can be eliminated.
      P.S. if you perform any scalar multiplication to the equations, make sure to apply that multiplication to the entire expression.
      eg. If [E1]: (alpha) + 2(beta) = 10
      Then 3 * [E1]: 3(alpha) + 6(beta) = 30

    • @Shodan159
      @Shodan159 2 года назад +1

      Further more,
      Say if a scalar multiplication would not result in being able to easily eliminate (alpha),
      such as:
      [E1]: 3(alpha) + 3(beta) = 10
      [E2]: 7(alpha) - 11(beta) = -5
      You could 'Cross-Multiply' the equations by the coefficient of (alpha) for each equation.
      So,
      7 * [E1]: 21(alpha) + 21(beta) = 70
      3 * [E2]: 21(alpha) - 33(beta) = -15
      Then, you can proceed with ( [E1] - [E2] ).

      Hi Rachel, I’m not 100% sure what you’re referring to?
      Do you mean skew lines?
      If so, you’ll find my tutorial on that here:

      do you mean in the set of values there is a 0 in this particular problem, in that case its the exactly the same process but you have an extra variable you will need to rearrange to solve for z in this case.
