The lines $\frac{\mathrm{x}-3}{1}=\frac{\mathrm{y}-2}{1}=\frac{\mathrm{z}-5}{-\mathrm{k}}$ and $\frac{\mathrm{x}-4}{\mathrm{k}}=\frac{\mathrm{y}-3}{1}=\frac{\mathrm{z}-3}{2}$ are coplanar, hence $\mathrm{k}=$

Coplanarity of two lines occurs when the scalar triple product of the connecting vector and the direction vectors is zero.

Given lines: $\frac{x-3}{1} = \frac{y-2}{1} = \frac{z-5}{-k}$ and $\frac{x-4}{k} = \frac{y-3}{1} = \frac{z-3}{2}$.

The determinant condition is:

$\begin{vmatrix} x_2-x_1 & y_2-y_1 & z_2-z_1 \\ a_1 & b_1 & c_1 \\ a_2 & b_2 & c_2 \end{vmatrix} = 0$

With $P_1(3,2,5)$, $\vec{d_1} = (1,1,-k)$, $P_2(4,3,3)$, $\vec{d_2} = (k,1,2)$, the connecting vector is $(1,1,-2)$.

Substituting yields:

$\begin{vmatrix} 1 & 1 & -2 \\ 1 & 1 & -k \\ k & 1 & 2 \end{vmatrix} = 0$

Expanding the determinant:

$1 \cdot (1 \cdot 2 - (-k) \cdot 1) - 1 \cdot (1 \cdot 2 - (-k) \cdot k) + (-2) \cdot (1 \cdot 1 - 1 \cdot k) = 0$

$2 + k - (2 + k^2) - 2(1 - k) = 0$

$2 + k - 2 - k^2 - 2 + 2k = 0$

$-k^2 + 3k - 2 = 0$

$k^2 - 3k + 2 = 0$

Factoring gives $(k-1)(k-2) = 0$, so $k = 1$ or $k = 2$.

The lines are coplanar for these values, corresponding to answer choice A.
