Safety on the London Underground The earliest attack on the London Underground was in 1885, when a bomb exploded on a Metropolitan line train at Euston Square station.

Various regulations aim to improve safety on the Tube. Smoking was allowed in certain carriages in trains until 9 July 1984. In the middle of 1987 smoking was banned for
Distance between two straight lines equations of two non-vertical parallel lines the distance between the two lines is the distance between the two intersection points of these lines with the perpendicular line This distance can be found by first solving the linear systems and to get the coordinates of the intersection points. The solutions to the linear systems are the points and The distance between the points is which reduces to When the lines are given by the distance between them can be expressed as Distance between two straight lines The distance between two straight lines in the plane is the minimum distance between any
