Question 3 • Geometry: Concepts and Connections

Why are lines AC and RS skew lines?

Answer
A
They lie in different planes and will be parallel if a plane is drawn to contain both lines.
B
They lie in the same plane but will never intersect.
C
They lie in different planes but will intersect if a plane is drawn to contain both lines.
D
They lie in different planes and will never intersect.

Explanation

Skew lines are lines that do not lie in the same plane and do not intersect. Lines AC and RS are described as lying in different planes and never intersecting, which matches choice C. Lines that are coplanar and never intersect are parallel, not skew.
