Find the distance between the point (3,1) and the line y = x - 4

i did like this :

y = -2x + b < equation
1 = -2(2) + b < use (3,1)
1 = -6 + b < add 6
7 = b
y = -2x + 7 < completed equation
THAN
x - 4 = -2x + 7 < substitution
add 4 both sides
x = -2 + 11
3x = -2 + 11
3x = 9
x = 9/3 < solved for x
THAN
y = -2 (9/3) + 7
y = -6 + 7
y = 1 < solved for y
THAN distance formula
D = sqrt( ( (x2 - x1)^2 + (y2 - y1)^2 )
(3,1) and (3,1)
D = sqrt ( (3 - 3)^2 + (1 - 1)^2 )
D = sqrt( 0 + 0)
D = 0 < solved
answer is zero
correct?up

find the measure of an angle if five times the complement  of this angle is 150degrees greater than the supplement of the angle.

ok this question came form my lil sis.....meaning cousin

she said.
angle * 5 = 150
150 / 5 = 30
30 equals angle........

factor x^2 - 3x + 3 over the set of complex numbers.

use quadratic formula
x^2 - 3x + 3 = 0
a = x^2
b = 3x
c = 3

       -3 +- sqrt( 3^2 - 4 * 1 * 3 )
x   = ---------------------------------
                      2 (1)

   
      -3 +- sqrt(9 - 12)
x=  ----------------------
               2


      -3 +- sqrt( -3)
x = -----------------
               2


      -3 +- sqrt( 1 (-3) )
x = ----------------------
                 2


      -3 +- 1 sqrt(-3)
x = ------------------
              2



x = -1.5 +- 0.5 sqrt(-3)

Evaluate:

sin^2  ----  + cos^2 -----
            6                  6


7pi = 21.99114858 divided by 6 > 3.665191429
11pi = 34.55751919 divided by 6 > 5.759586532

sin^2 3.665191429 > isssssssss
