उत्तर

Let C(x1, y1) and D(x2, y2) be the given points.

∴ x1 = –3a, y1 = a, x2 = a, y2 = –2a

By distance formula,

d(C, D) = `sqrt((x_2 - x_1)^2 + (y_2 - y_1)^2`

= `sqrt([a - (-3a)]^2 + (-2a - a)^2`

= `sqrt((a + 3a)^2 + (-2a - a)^2`

= `sqrt((4a)^2 + (-3a)^2`

= `sqrt(16a^2 + 9a^2)`

= `sqrt(25a^2)`

∴ d(C, D) = 5a units

In a GPS, The lines that run east-west are known as lines of latitude, and the lines running north-south are known as lines of longitude. The latitude and the longitude of a place are its coordinates and the distance formula is used to find the distance between two places. The distance between two parallel lines is approximately 150 km.
