Equation of the line: 6x + 8y - 48 = 0
Formula Used:
Perpendicular distance from a point (x1, y1) to a line Ax + By + C = 0 is given by:
Calculation:
Given point (0, 0) and line 6x + 8y - 48 = 0
Here, A = 6, B = 8, C = -48, x1 = 0, y1 = 0
Substitute values into the formula:
⇒
⇒
⇒
⇒
The perpendicular length from the origin to the line 6x + 8y - 48 = 0 is 4.8 units.
