(This distance is the perpendicular distance between the 2 parallel lines, which is the shortest distance between them.)

The distance between the paralled lines 3x + 4y +15 = 0 and 3x + 4y -10 = 0 is equal-example-1
The distance between the paralled lines 3x + 4y +15 = 0 and 3x + 4y -10 = 0 is equal-example-2
The distance between the paralled lines 3x + 4y +15 = 0 and 3x + 4y -10 = 0 is equal-example-3
The distance between the paralled lines 3x + 4y +15 = 0 and 3x + 4y -10 = 0 is equal-example-4
The distance between the paralled lines 3x + 4y +15 = 0 and 3x + 4y -10 = 0 is equal-example-5
