Given Line is: 2x - y = 0
=> y = 2x
So slope of the line = 2
=> tanθ = 2/1
Now hypotenuse2 = base2 + perpendicular2
= 12 + 22
= 1+4
= 5
=> hypotenuse2 = √5
Sinθ = 2/√5 and cosθ = 1/√5
The equation of a line passing thrugh (1,2) and making angle θ is
(x-1)/cosθ = (y-2)/sinθ = r
=> (x-1)/1/√5 = (y-2)/2/√5 = r
Now (x-1)/1/√5 = r
=> x-1 = r/√5
=> x = 1+ r/√5
and
(y-2)/2/√5 = r
=> y-2 = r*2/√5
=> y = 2 + 2r/√5
So point is (1+ r/√5, 2 + 2r/√5)
If this point lies on the line 4x + 7y + 5 = 0
=> 4*(1+ r/√5) + 7*(2 + 2r/√5) + 5 = 0
=> 4+ 4r/√5 + 14 +14r/√5 = 0
=> 18+ 18r/√5 = 0
=> 1+ r/√5 = 0
=> r/√5 = -1
=> r = -√5
So the distance is |r| = |-√5| = √5 unit
