To find the distance between a point and a line, we can use the formula:

Distance = |Ax + By + C| / sqrt(A^2 + B^2)

Given the line equation x - 2y + 4 = 0, we can rewrite it in the general form Ax + By + C = 0:

1x - 2y + 4 = 0

Comparing this with Ax + By + C = 0, we have A = 1, B = -2, and C = 4.

Now, let's find the distance between the point P(-2, 1) and the line:

Distance = |1(-2) + (-2)(1) + 4| / sqrt(1^2 + (-2)^2)
= |-2 - 2 + 4| / sqrt(1 + 4)
= |0| / sqrt(5)
= 0 / sqrt(5)
= 0

So, the distance between P(-2, 1) and the line x - 2y + 4 = 0 is 0.

To write the equation 3x + 4y - 7 = 0 in normal form, you need to rearrange the terms so that the coefficients of x and y are fractions with a common denominator. The equation can be rewritten as:

3/5x + 4/5y - 7/5 = 0

For the equation of a line in standard form where the length of the normal is 4 and the normal makes an angle of 45° with the positive x-axis, you can use the formula:

ax + by + c = 0

The length of the normal is the coefficient of x or y divided by the square root of the sum of the squares of the coefficients, so:

4 = sqrt(a^2 + b^2)

Since the angle with the positive x-axis is 45°, the slope of the line is 1, which means a = b. Substituting this into the formula, you get:

4 = sqrt(2a^2)

Solving for a, you get:

a = 2

Therefore, the standard form of the equation is:

2x + 2y - 8 = 0

Similarly, for the equation of a line where the length of the normal is 3 and the normal makes an angle of 135° with the positive x-axis, you can apply the same process. The coefficient of x is √2, and since the angle is 135°, the slope of the line is -1, so the coefficient of y is -√2. This gives you the equation:

√2x - √2y + 6 = 0

To find the distance between point P(-2, 1) and the line x - 2y + 4 = 0, you can use the formula for the perpendicular distance from a point to a line. The formula is:

Distance = |ax0 + by0 + c| / sqrt(a^2 + b^2)

Substituting the values, you get:

Distance = |(-2) - 2(1) + 4| / sqrt(1^2 + (-2)^2)
= |-2 - 2 + 4| / sqrt(1 + 4)
= |-2| / sqrt(5)
= 2 / sqrt(5)
= 2sqrt(5) / 5

Therefore, the distance between point P and the line is 2sqrt(5) / 5.
