Explanation of Solution
Given information:
The phrase given is “we can choose any point on either line while evaluating the distance between two parallel lines”.
Calculation:
The formula for the distance from a point to line is as follows:
The sign of radical is opposite to the sign of
The distance between two parallel lines is constant. So the distance of any point of the line will be same to the distance of opposite line.
