Given the lines $\vec{r} = (3+t)\hat{i} + (1-t)\hat{j} + (-2-2t)\hat{k}$,$t \in R$ and $x = 4+k, y = -k, z = -4-2k$,$k \in R$. What is the relationship between these two lines?

The straight lines $\frac{x - 1}{1} = \frac{y - 2}{2} = \frac{z - 3}{3}$ and $\frac{x - 1}{2} = \frac{y - 2}{2} = \frac{z - 3}{-2}$ are

If the shortest distance between the lines $\frac{x-\lambda}{-2}=\frac{y-2}{1}=\frac{z-1}{1}$ and $\frac{x-\sqrt{3}}{1}=\frac{y-1}{-2}=\frac{z-2}{1}$ is $1$,then the sum of all possible values of $\lambda$ is:

If the line joining the points $A(7, p, 2)$ and $B(q, -2, 5)$ is parallel to the line joining the points $C(2, -3, 5)$ and $D(-6, -15, 11)$,then the value of $p^2 + q^2$ is equal to

Consider the lines $L_1$ and $L_2$ given by
$L_1: \frac{x-1}{2} = \frac{y-3}{1} = \frac{z-2}{2}$
$L_2: \frac{x-2}{1} = \frac{y-2}{2} = \frac{z-3}{3}$
$A$ line $L_3$ having direction ratios $1, -1, -2$ intersects $L_1$ and $L_2$ at the points $P$ and $Q$ respectively. Then the length of line segment $PQ$ is
