Find the equation of the locus of a point that moves so that its distance from the line 12x-5y-1=0 is always 1 unit

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I looked at that, yet it didnt help me. as it didnt provide an answer, so I'm still confused

OpenStudy (immanuelv):

the answer is provided there though

OpenStudy (anonymous):

my book says the answers are: 12x-5y-14=0 and 12x-5y+12=0

OpenStudy (anonymous):

not sure how that's meant to help me mark? that doesn't relate to the question at all, except for the equation?

We need to find the equation of the points that are always a distance of 1 from the equation. Do you remember distance formula?
