Consider the following statements.

I. The length of perpendicular from a given point

\left(x_1, y_1\right)

to a line

a x+b y+c=0

\left|\frac{a x_1+b y_1+c}{\sqrt{a^2+b^2}}\right|

II. Three or more straight lines are said to be concurrent lines, if they meet at a point.

Choose the correct option.

View answer and explanation

Correct option: C

Both are true

Option C is correct because both statements are fundamental concepts in coordinate geometry.
