A point equidistant from the lines 4x + 3y + 10 = 0, 5x – 12y + 26 = 0 and 7x + 24y – 50 = 0 is
Given equations are:
4x + 3y + 10 = 0 …(i)
5x – 12y + 26 = 0 …(ii)
and 7x + 24y – 50 = 0 …(iii)
Let (p, q) be the point which is equidistant from the given lines.
Now, we find the distance of (p, q) from the given lines.
We know that,
the distance d of a point P(x0, y0) from the line Ax + By + C = 0 is given by
