Assertion $(A)$: The two lines $\bar{r}=\bar{a}+t(\bar{b})$ and $\bar{r}=\bar{b}+s(\bar{a})$ intersect each other.
Reason $(R)$: The shortest distance between the lines $\bar{r}=\bar{p}+t(\bar{q})$ and $\bar{r}=\bar{c}+s(\bar{d})$ is equal to the length of the projection of the vector $(\bar{p}-\bar{c})$ on $(\bar{q} \times \bar{d})$.
The correct answer is:
