How do I find the shortest distance between two skew lines?
Okay, I think I understand that step. What do I do next?
Next, choose a point on one of the lines and call it P. Then, find the vector from P to any point on the other line. Finally, take the dot product of this vector with the normal vector and divide by the magnitude of the normal vector. This will give you the shortest distance between the two lines.
