Title: How do you find the distance from the point Q(-2,-2) to the line y=3? Post by: micgin on Apr 10, 2013 it is simply 5.. coz (-2,-2) is 2 blocks below x-axis and y=3 is 3 blocks above x-axis...
there are formula to calculate distance from line to line or line to point in case which the line is an oblique line not a vertical or horizontal line..
