To find the least and greatest values of the distance from the point \((\cos \theta, \sin \theta)\) to the line \(3x - 4y + 10 = 0\), we can use the formula for the distance \(D\) from a point \((x_0, y_0)\) to a line \(Ax + By + C = 0\): \[ D = \frac{|Ax_0 + By_0 + C|}{\sqrt{A^2 + B^2}} \] ### Step 1: Identify the coefficients In our case, the line is given by \(3x - 4y + 10 = 0\). Here, we have: ...
