OpenStudy (meowlover17):

actually sorry , i believe you have to solve for the distance of the two lines then add them up.

OpenStudy (meowlover17):

I'll give you the coordinates to plug into this equation then solve for the distance of the two lines.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok

OpenStudy (meowlover17):
