Distance from point to straight line online calculator


Ax + By + C = 0

App description

The length of the vertical line is called the distance from the point to the line.

The straight line Ax+By+C=0, coordinate (Xo, Yo), then the distance from this point to this line is: │AXo+BYo+C│/√(A²+B²).

Among all the lines connected by a point outside the line and the points on the line, the vertical line is the shortest.

The distance from a point to a straight line is called a vertical line segment.

Usage example

X1:5

Y1:3

Ax + By + C = 0

A:2;B:3;C:1

Click "calculate" to output the result

Distance from point to line:

20/sqrt(13)=5.547001962252292
