(C) Given equation is $(x+7y)^2 + 4\sqrt{2}(x+7y) - 42 = 0$. Let $x+7y = t$. Then the equation becomes $t^2 + 4\sqrt{2}t - 42 = 0$. Using the quadratic formula $t = \frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{2a}$: $t = \frac{-4\sqrt{2} \pm \sqrt{(4\sqrt{2})^2 - 4(1)(-42)}}{2} = \frac{-4\sqrt{2} \pm \sqrt{32 + 168}}{2} = \frac{-4\sqrt{2} \pm \sqrt{200}}{2} = \frac{-4\sqrt{2} \pm 10\sqrt{2}}{2}$. So,$t = 3\sqrt{2}$ or $t = -7\sqrt{2}$. The two parallel lines are $x+7y - 3\sqrt{2} = 0$ and $x+7y + 7\sqrt{2} = 0$. The distance $d$ between two parallel lines $Ax + By + C_1 = 0$ and $Ax + By + C_2 = 0$ is given by $d = \frac{|C_1 - C_2|}{\sqrt{A^2 + B^2}}$. Here $A = 1, B = 7, C_1 = -3\sqrt{2}, C_2 = 7\sqrt{2}$. $d = \frac{|-3\sqrt{2} - 7\sqrt{2}|}{\sqrt{1^2 + 7^2}} = \frac{|-10\sqrt{2}|}{\sqrt{50}} = \frac{10\sqrt{2}}{5\sqrt{2}} = 2$.
