The locus of mid-points of points of intersection of x +y =1 with the coordinate axes is
Options
- Ax^2+y^2=4
- B1 x^2 + 1 y^2 = 4
- C1 x^2 + 1 y^2 = 1 2
- Dx^2+y^2=2
Correct answer
B. 1 x^2 + 1 y^2 = 4
Step-by-step solution
Let the line cut the axes in A and B and if (h, k) be the mid-point of A B , then 2 h= 1 , 2 k= 1 In order to find the locus, eleminate the variable by ^2 + ^2 =1 1 4 h^2 + 1 4 k^2 =1 1 x^2 + 1 y^2 =4
