Problem 37: Distance of Skew Lines

A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z
Two lines are called skew, if they don't intersect and if they are not parallel. Show that the lines

$\displaystyle g_1: x=\left(\begin{array}{r}2\\ 0\\ 4\end{array}\right)+r\left(\... ...\\ 6\\ 7\end{array}\right)+s\left(\begin{array}{r}0\\ -1\\ 1\end{array}\right) $


are skew, and find their distance.
