If $P(\sqrt{2} \sec \theta, \sqrt{2} \tan \theta)$ is a point on the hyperbola whose distance from the origin is $\sqrt{6}$ (where P is in the first quadrant) then $\theta$ equals
The ratio in which the line 3x + 4y + 2 = 0 divides the distance between the lines 3x + 4y + 5 = 0 and 3x + 4y – 5 = 0 is
The value of 'a' if the distance between P(a, 5) and Q(2, a) is 7 units, is
Distance between two points
Given, Point A (x1, y1) and B (x2, y2) are two points on the cartesian plane
Using Pythagoras Theorem
$
\begin{aligned}
& c^2=a^2+b^2 \\
& A B^2=a^2+b^2 \\
& A B^2=\left(x_2-x_1\right)^2+\left(y_2-y_1\right)^2 \\
& |A B|=\sqrt{\left(x_2-x_1\right)^2+\left(y_2-y_1\right)^2}
\end{aligned}
$
Note:
The distance of a point $\mathrm{A}(\mathrm{x}, \mathrm{y})$ from the origin $\mathrm{O}(0,0)$ is given by
$
|O A|=\sqrt{(x-0)^2+(y-0)^2}=\sqrt{x^2+y^2}
