Mathematics Question from JEE Main 2025 · 4 April, Shift 2

Let the values of pp, for which the shortest distance between the lines x+13=y4=z5\frac{x + 1}{3} = \frac{y}{4} = \frac{z}{5} and r=(pi^+2j^+k^)+λ(2i^+3j^+4k^)\vec{r} = (p \hat{i} + 2 \hat{j} + \hat{k}) + \lambda (2 \hat{i} + 3 \hat{j} + 4 \hat{k}) is 16\frac{1}{\sqrt{6}}, be a,ba, b, where a<ba < b. Then the length of the latus rectum of the ellipse x2a2+y2b2=1\frac{x^2}{a^2} + \frac{y^2}{b^2} = 1 is:

  • A

    99

  • B

    32\frac{3}{2}

  • C

    23\frac{2}{3}

  • D

    1818
