Questions
If one of the diagonals of a square is along the line and one of its vertices is (3, 0), then its sides through this vertex are given by the equations
detailed solution
Correct option is A
Clearly the point (3, 0) does not lie on the diagonal x=2 y.Let m be the slope of a side passing through (3, 0). Then,its equation isy-0=m(x-3). (i)Since the angle between a diagonal and a side of a square· isπ/4. Therefore, angle between x=2y and y−0=m(x−3) isalso π/4. Consequently, we havetanπ4=±m−1/21+m/2⇒m=3,−13Substituting the values of min (i), we obtainy-3x+9=0 and 3y+x-3=0 as the required sides.Talk to our academic expert!
