Question

Distance between the lines 5x + 3y − 7 = 0 and 15x + 9y + 14 = 0 is

Options

  • \[\frac{35}{\sqrt{34}}\]

  • \[\frac{1}{3\sqrt{34}}\]

  • \[\frac{35}{3\sqrt{34}}\]

  • \[\frac{35}{2\sqrt{34}}\]

  •  35

Solution

\[\frac{35}{3\sqrt{34}}\]

The given lines can be written as
5x + 3y − 7 = 0       ... (1) 

\[5x + 3y + \frac{14}{3} = 0\]             ... (2)

Let d be the distance between the lines 5x + 3y − 7 = 0 and 15x + 9y + 14 = 0

\[\text { Then, d } = \left| \frac{- 7 - \frac{14}{3}}{\sqrt{5^2 + 3^2}} \right|\]

\[ \Rightarrow d = \frac{35}{3\sqrt{34}}\]
