If L is a line in 2-space or 3-space that passes through the points A and B, then the distance from a point P to the line L is equal to the length of the component of the vector AP that is orthogonal to the vector AB. A. Distance = A B Use the method above to find the distance from the point P(–3, 1, 10) to the line through A(1, 1, 0) and B(-2,3,-4). NOTE: Enter the exact answer.
