The points \(A\) and \(B\) have coordinates \((15, 3, 0)\) and \((5, 9, 5)\) respectively. Two lines \(l_1\) and \(l_2\), which are perpendicular to each other, have the following equations.
\(l_1 : \mathbf{r} = (15 - \lambda)\mathbf{i} + (3 + 2\lambda)\mathbf{j} + 4\lambda\mathbf{k},\)
\(l_2 : \mathbf{r} = (5 + 8\mu)\mathbf{i} + (9 - 2\mu)\mathbf{j} + (5 + m\mu)\mathbf{k},\)
where \(\lambda\) and \(\mu\) are parameters and \(m\) is a constant.
