In three dimensions, there is a final possibility should the lines not be parallel: the lines may be *skew*. To determine if the lines are skew, the x, y, and z variables of **two** parametric equations should be equated to their counterparts in the other vector as if they intersect. The resulting $t$ and $s$ from the first and second line respectively should be substituted into the third equation and an equality check performed. Should there not be a solution that fulfills the third equation, the lines are skew. Otherwise, they intersect.

### Applications of vector equations

For an object moving at **constant velocity in 2D space**, where $\vec{s}$ is its displacement, $\vec{s}_0$ is its initial displacement at $t=0$, $t$ is the time elapsed, and $\vec{v}$ is its velocity:
|

$$\vec{s}=\vec{s}_0+t\vec{v}$$
