  1. A \(2 \sqrt{29}\)
  2. B \(1\)
  3. C \(\sqrt{\frac{37}{29}}\)
  4. D \(\frac{\sqrt{29}}{2}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(2 \sqrt{29}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(L_{1}: \frac{x+7}{-6}=\frac{y-6}{7}=\frac{z-0}{1}\) Any point on it \(\vec{a}_{1}(-7,6,0)\) and \(L_{1}\) is parallel to \(\vec{b}_{1}(-6,7,1)\) \(L_{2}: \frac{x-7}{-2}=\frac{y-2}{1}=\frac{z-6}{1}\) Any point on it, \(\vec{a}_{2}(7,2,6)\) and \(L_{2}\) is parallel to…
