Question
in the triangular pyramid shown below, which lines are skew? select all that apply.
Step1: Recall skew - lines definition
Skew lines are non - parallel and non - intersecting lines in 3 - D space.
Step2: Analyze $\overrightarrow{GI}$ and $\overrightarrow{HJ}$
$\overrightarrow{GI}$ and $\overrightarrow{HJ}$ are not in the same plane, not parallel and do not intersect, so they are skew.
Step3: Analyze $\overrightarrow{GJ}$ and $\overrightarrow{HJ}$
$\overrightarrow{GJ}$ and $\overrightarrow{HJ}$ share the common point $J$, so they are not skew (they intersect).
