Determine the distance between the following pair of parallel lines:
4x – 3y – 9 = 0 and 4x – 3y – 24 = 0
Given: The parallel lines are
4x − 3y − 9 = 0 … (1)
4x − 3y − 24 = 0 … (2)
To find:
Distance between the givens parallel lines
Explanation:
Let d be the distance between the given lines.
Hence, distance between givens parallel line is
