A straight line passes through the points and . The length of the perpendicular from the point on the line is
Explanation for the correct option:
Step 1: Finding the equation of line.
The points are
The equation of line passes through two points and is
, where
Step 2: Finding the distance:
The distance from the point to a line is
Thus the length of the perpendicular from the point to the line is
Hence, option (D) is the correct answer.
