The linegiven by passes through the point . The line is parallel toand has the equation Then, the distance betweenand is
Step 1: Given
Step 2: Find the Distance between and .
The point lies on the line C
Now, the equation of
The line and are parallel
The slope of = The slope of
Putting c in the equation
Now, the distance between two parallel lines is
where, and constant in the equations and respectively.
and coefficient of and in equations and respectively.
Distance
Hence, the distance between and is .
