Questions
The equation of a line through the point (1, 2) whose distance from the point (3, 1) has the greatest value is
detailed solution
Correct option is A
Obviously, the line through Q is at the greatest distance from point P when it is perpendicular to PQ. Now, the slope of line PQ is mPQ=-12Then the slope of perpendicular line passing through Q is y−2=2(x−1) or 2x−y=0Talk to our academic expert!
