Step 1:

The line equation is $\"\"$ and point is $\"\"$ .

The general equation of the line is $\"\"$ .

Compare the above two equations,

$\"\"$ .

Let $\"\"$ .

The distance between the point and the line is: $\"\"$ .

Substitute $\"\"$ $\"\"$ in $\"\"$ .

$\"\"$

The distance between the point and the line is $\"\"$ units.

Solution :

The distance between the point and the line is $\"\"$ units.
