Shortest Distance Between Skew Lines

This tutorial shows a strategy for determining the minimum or shortest distance between two shew lines. The example also shows how to find the two points, one on each line that are the closest points on the skew lines and what is the minimum distance between the skew lines.

By far, this is the easiest to understand.

Thank you soooooo much!!! This was exactly what I needed

[@sankoktas420]

Very helpful. Great content.

Very nice method. Please also explain the projection of vector joining given points through which line passes, on the line of shortest distance

It helps me tyyyyy

[@kabilanm4969]

dEAR RICHARD , that was a nice explanation, could you please explain the projection method too, it would be very much appreciated.thank you

[@AlRichards314]

Sorry, I don't have much time to do that now. That is a good idea, when time becomes available. Thanks for the suggestion.

I tried to derive this using vector equation and I don't know how I am still alive.

It's much easier
