Find the distance of the point (4, 5) from the straight line 3x тАУ 5y + 7 = 0.



Answer -

Given:

The line:┬а3x тАУ 5y+ 7 = 0

Comparing ax + by + c= 0 and 3x┬атИТ┬а5y + 7 = 0, we get:

a = 3, b=┬атИТ┬а5 and c = 7

So, the distance ofthe point (4, 5) from the straight line 3x┬атИТ┬а5y + 7 = 0 is

тИ┤ The required distanceis 6/тИЪ34
