The co-ordinate axes are rotated through an angle 135^ . If the co-ordinates of a point P in the new system are known to be (4,-3) , then the co-ordinates of P in the original system are
Options
- A( 1 2 , 7 2 )
- B( 1 2 ,- 7 2 )
- C(- 1 2 ,- 7 2 )
- D(- 1 2 , 7 2 )
Correct answer
D. (- 1 2 , 7 2 )
Step-by-step solution
Let (x₁, y₁ ) be the co-ordinate of new system, then x₁=x +y ₁=-x +y Given that (x₁, y₁ )=(4,-3) and =135^ 4=x 135^ +y 135^ 4=- x 2 + y 2 ( i )-3=-x 135^ +y 135^ -3=- x 2 - y 2 ( ii ) On adding Eqs. (i) and (ii), we get 1=- 2 x 2 x=- 1 2 On subtracting Eqs. (i) and (ii), we get 7= 2 y 2 y= 7 2 Thus (x, y)= (- 1 2 , 7 2 )
