To find: The distance from the given point A to the given line.
Answer to Problem 7E
The distance from the given point A to the given line is
Explanation of Solution
Given information:
The given point A is
The y -intercept of the line is obtained as,
The equation of the line will be,
The slope of the perpendicular line on the given line will be
The y -intercept of the perpendicular equation on the given line from point A is obtain as,
The equation of the perpendicular line will be,
The intersection point of the lines is at
Calculate the distance from the given point A to the given line that is point
Thus, the distance from the given point A to the given line is
