Transform the equation `x/a+y/b=1` into normal form where `agt0, bgt0`. If the perpendicular distance of the straight line from the Origin is p then deduce that `1/(p^(2))=1/(a^(2))+1/(b^(2))`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
Hence Proved that `1/(p^(2))=1/(a^(2))+1/(b^(2))`
