MCQ
Distance between the parallel lines $3x + 4y + 7 = 0$ and $3x + 4y - 5 = 0$ is
  • A
    $\frac{2}{5}$
  • $\frac{{12}}{5}$
  • C
    $\frac{5}{{12}}$
  • D
    $\frac{3}{5}$

Answer

Correct option: B.
$\frac{{12}}{5}$
b
(b) ${d_1} = $ distance of perpendicular from $(0,\,0)$ to $3x + 4y + 7 = 0$

${d_1} = \frac{{3 \times 0 + 4 \times 0 + 7}}{{\sqrt {{3^2} + {4^2}} }} = \frac{7}{5}$

${d_2} = \frac{{3 \times 0 + 4 \times 0 + ( - 5)}}{{\sqrt {{3^2} + {4^2}} }} = \frac{{ - 5}}{5}$

 Required distance $ = \left| {\,{d_1} - {d_2}} \right|$$ = \left| {\,\frac{7}{5} - \left( {\frac{{ - 5}}{5}} \right)\,} \right| = \frac{{12}}{5}.$
