Lines in Space: Part 5 - A Tale of Two Lines

The author considers how two lines can interact, what geometric relationships they can have, and the algebraic indicators of those relationships (as expressed by tensor diagrams)? Three possibilities exist. Two lines can coincide, intersect, or be disjoint (skew).
