Given : 3y - 2x – 4 = 0 and 4x - 6y + 7 = 0
To Find : Distance between lines 3y - 2x – 4 = 0 and 4x - 6y + 7 = 0
Solution:
3y - 2x – 4 = 0 and 4x - 6y + 7 = 0
=> Slope = 2/3
Slope of perpendicular line = - 3/2
Hence y = -3x/2 + c
=> 3x + 2y = k
3y - 2x – 4 = 0 => 3y - 2x = 4
x = - 2 , y = 0 is one point (-2 , 0) on 3y - 2x = 4
lets draw perpendicular line 3x + 2y = k passing through this
=> 3(-2) + 2(0) = k
=> k = - 6
=> 3x + 2y = -6
3x + 2y = -6
4x - 6y + 7 = 0
3 ( 3x + 2y ) + 4x - 6y + 7 = 3(-6) + 0
=> 13x + 7 = -18
=> x = -25/13
y = -3/26
(-2 , 0) and ( -25/13 , - 3/26)
Distance = √(-25/13 + 2)²+ (-3/26 - 0)²
= √13 / 26
= 1/2√13
Distance between lines 3y - 2x – 4 = 0 and 4x - 6y + 7 = 0 is 1/2√13
