Find the distance of the point (-1,1) and the given line is `12x-5y+82=0`

Answer» The given point is P(-1,1) and the given line is 12x-5y+82=0.
Let the required distance be d. The,
d=length of the perpendicular from P(-1,1) on the line 12-5y+82=0
`=(|12xx(-1)-5xx1+82|)/(sqrt((12)^(2)+(-5)^(2)))=(65)/(sqrt169)=(65)/(13)=5units`
