What is length of the projection of line...

What is length of the projection of line segment joining points `(2,3)` and `(7,5)` on x-axis.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
5 units
Given points `A(2,3) and B(7,5)`. Feet of perpendicular from these points on x-axis are `C(2,0)and D(7,0)`.
`therfore CD=7-2=5`units.
