Find the points on y-a xi s whose perpendicular distance from the line `4x-3y-12=0` is `3.`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Let the required point be P(0,alpha). It is given that the length of the perpendicular
from P(0,alpha) on `4x-3y-12=0 `is `3. `
Therefore,
`|4(0)−3alpha−12|/(sqrt(4^2+(−3)^2+3)`
`|3alpha+12|=25`
` |alpha+4|=5 `
`alpha+4=±5 `
`alpha=1,−9 `
