Let L1 be the line passing through the point P1=(-10, 5, 11)

Let L1 be the line passing through the point P1=(-10, 5, 11) with direction vector →d1= [−2, 3, 2]T, and let L2 be the line passing through the point P2=(-34, 13, -3) with direction vector →d2=[2, -5, 0]T. Find the shortest distance d between these two lines, and find a point Q1 on L1 and a point Q2 on L2 so that d(Q1,Q2) = d. Use the square root symbol 'V' where needed to give an exact value for your answer. d= Q1= Q2= d = 4√33 Q₁=(-4,-4, 5) Q2 = (-24, -12, -3) Above is the answer, however, I am not sure how to get to these solutions.
